               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.

               New Admittees Events
               The Department co-sponsors receptions and gatherings across the state to welcome new attorneys
               to the profession.
