The Women Lawyers Association of Michigan’s DEI Committee will present “Navigating Disability in Law School” online Wednesday, March 4, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. via Zoom.

The WLAM DEI Committee will host a panel of representatives from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law, Wayne State University Law School, and Cooley Law School to discuss the nuances of navigating issues surrounding disability while attending law school and working toward a career in the law.

All law students and members of the legal community are invited to tune in to hear more about the intricacies of managing these issues. The goal is to ensure the legal community works together to support our law students in successfully joining the legal profession.
