| The primary event
for the Minority Access Committee each year is sponsoring
the Unsung Heroes Reception. Each year the Minority Access
Committee chooses four individuals or entities to honor at a
reception held each fall. This event was initiated in 1994
to recognize minority attorneys who have blazed a path for
other minority attorneys in our community. The Unsung Heroes
Awards also recognize those organizations or individuals,
regardless of ethnicity, or even standing as members of the
bar, who have demonstrated a long-standing commitment to
encouraging the advancement of minorities in the legal
profession or promoting equal access to the administration
of justice for individuals. |
