               Class Project: 2023-24

               The 2023-24  Leadership  LSBA Class  created a PowerPoint presentation that incorporated an
               activity titled No Vehicles in the Park. The outreach presentation is titled Demystifying the Legal
               Profession and focuses on providing students with a clear and engaging introduction to the legal
               profession regarding what attorneys do, the path to becoming a lawyer, and the requirements for
               entering the field. The goal of the presentation is to aid high school students to make informed
               decisions about their future career paths. The incorporated activity No Vehicles in the Park is meant
               to encourage students to “think like a lawyer” and think about how laws and made, enforced,
               defended, and sometimes changed.
