Law Week Highlights
As COVID-19 continues to impact the way we work , our Law Week Committee presented impressive and educational programs for middle and high school students safely on zoom . The week included a session on the Dangers of Cyberbullying ; Careers in the Law ; and ended with an inspirational keynote speaker for our members during our annual Law Day Virtual Luncheon . All of these programs were recorded .
After the year we ’ ve all had , could you use a little inspiration and motivation ? If you missed hearing our Law Day speaker , found out what the “ Game of Life ” is all about . The program was recorded and can be found in our CLE library and includes 1.0 General ; 1.0 Mental Illness and 2.0 Marital and Family credits .
