APABA-DC MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS



Join APABA-DC today and receive the full benefits of membership!

Support the community.

APABA-DC works to cultivate an understanding of the issues facing the Asian Pacific American (APA) legal community and the APA community at large. We do this through staffing pro-bono clinics, training and development, and programs focused on raising issues in the APA community. We strive to make the majority of our programs free and open to the public. As a member, your dues support our mission.

Professional development.

APABA-DC hosts a wide variety of panels, workshops, and other events to promote the professional development of our members, no matter their practice or stage of their career.  Our events and programs feature leaders and rising stars in the legal industry, including judges, government officials, firm leaders, in-house counsel, experienced practitioners, and subject-matter experts.  Each of these programs serves as an opportunity to learn from and connect with APA leaders.  Members are also called upon to serve as panelists, speakers, and presenters for our programs, enabling them to expand their reach and share their expertise with the community.

Become a leader.

Members are leaders in our community and encouraged to serve in leadership positions.  Members also have a voice in the leadership and direction of APABA-DC by serving in and voting for board members who lead our organization.  Membership is required to be considered as a candidate for an officer of APABA-DC and to serve on the Board of Directors of APABA-DC.

Stay in the know.
