               Increased Awareness of Activities/Events

               Outreach Postcard
               The  Department  is  actively  engaged  in  fostering  communication  with  local  and  specialty  bar
               associations  throughout  the  state.  In  an  effort  to  receive  information  regarding  activities  and
               events  of  local  and  specialty  bar  associations,  the  Department  created  an  Outreach  Postcard
               requesting  that  each  organization  add  the  Department  to  their  listserv  and  provide  the
               Department with updated contact information. The Department’s goal is to maintain information
               concerning regular meetings and signature events. The Department is committed to maintaining
               and regularly updating this information which will aide in coordinating increased outreach by the
               Department and LSBA officers. The Department now has an email address, outreach@lsba.org,
               and  the  email  address  continues  to  be  provided  to  all  local  and  specialty  bar  associations  to
               achieve increased communication.
