Opening Doors

A Campaign for Oregon Women Lawyers Foundation 2009-2011

The Opening Doors campaign uses the resources of the entire legal community to support projects that will help women and minorities access and participate in the justice system.

Each of us can use our own experience and passions to guide the way through barriers. We all have something to give whether you are a law student, professor, lawyer, judge, clerk, paralegal, or legal administrator. As we offer our hand to others, we find ourselves strengthened as well.

OWLF is opening doors to single parents entering the legal practice in Oregon by providing scholarships for the bar exam fee.
OWLF is opening doors through the Armonica Grant Program that pairs law students with ethnic minority judges and lawyers as mentors.

Open a door now!
