Serve on a WYLD Committee

WYLD Committees provide an entryway for new attorneys and law students looking to volunteer and make connections with their colleagues and state bar association. Time commitment and the types of projects vary by committee. Most committees hold open monthly meetings, and include a conference call option so people throughout the state can participate. Committees are open to new ideas and energy.

Read about the WYLD programs and contact a chair to learn about current projects and opportunities to volunteer.
