The Judicial Division (JD) is pleased to report that the Conference of Chief Justices and Conference of State Court Administrators have passed a joint resolution (Resolution 6 of 2019) supporting the JD Judicial Outreach Network Committee’s National Judicial Outreach Week initiative, taking place March 1-10, 2019.
Members are encouraged to apply for over 700 ABA Presidential appointments available. Learn how to get a Judicial Division recommendation.
This is the first open access issue in the history of the journal, an indication of the importance of this topic to the Academy. It is part of a larger, ongoing Academy effort to gather information about the national need for improved legal access, study innovations piloted around the country to fill this need, and advance a set of clear, national recommendations for closing the justice gap — between supply and demand for services provided by lawyers and other problem-solvers.
NJOW was established to encourage judges and lawyers who support a fair and impartial judiciary to engage the community directly and to confirm the public’s commitment to ensuring that the courts remain fair and impartial. NJOW will take place March 1 – 10, 2019. Materials and tools are available to assist with planning your presentation.
