Creating Pathways to Diversity is the seminal diversity conference of the year.

Participants will also have the opportunity to network with the best and brightest in the legal diversity field while meeting CLE requirements. Topics include Revisiting the Business Case for Diversity; Affinity Groups: A Study of Model Programs at Law Firms and Legal Departments; and Leveraging a New Generation of Cultural Competency.
