MISSOULA, Mont., June 7, 2019 — The American Bar Association Board of Governors voted Friday to relocate the ABA 2021 Midyear Meeting to Chicago for economic reasons.
The association evaluated 18 cities as possible locations for the meeting scheduled for February 10-15, 2021.
The decision to hold the meeting in Chicago will result in significant savings to the ABA and its members due in large part to the fact that its headquarters is located there.
With more than 400,000 members, the American Bar Association is one of the largest voluntary professional membership organizations in the world. As the national voice of the legal profession, the ABA works to improve the administration of justice, promotes programs that assist lawyers and judges in their work, accredits law schools, provides continuing legal education, and works to build public understanding around the world of the importance of the rule of law.
