Your MyABA profile is your online membership identity. It provides useful information about your educational background, areas of practice, interests, meeting and event needs, memberships, affiliations, demographics etc. This information is housed and protected within our Association Management System.
ABA Goal III, one of four association-wide goals, memorizes the ABA’s commitment to eliminating bias and enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) throughout the Association, legal profession, and justice system. To meet the objectives of Goal III, the ABA collects demographic information from our members to track our progress and implement measures to strengthen DEI within the Association.
Providing this demographic information is voluntary, never made publicly available, only accessible to ABA staff members; and housed and protected within our Association Management System. If you choose to provide this information but later change your mind, you may opt-out at any time. For more, please see the ABA’s Privacy Policy.
The ABA Diversity and Inclusion Center does publish an annual Goal III Report providing aggregate diversity data on ABA leadership and membership.
We have created a short online document with step-by-step instructions on how to complete the demographic section of your MyABA profile.
