It has been 189 days since Paulette Brown took the office of ABA president. At that time, she said, she promised the ABA would be “social engineers for justice.”
On Monday morning, Brown, of Locke Lord in Morristown, New Jersey, told the House of Delegates about the many things the ABA has done toward that goal in the past six months. That includes work in pro bono legal services, encouraging diversity in the legal profession, learning to recognize implicit bias and improving services to ABA members.
