The New York Women's Bar Association, founded in 1935, is a non-profit organization devoted to improving the status of women in society, educating women lawyers and assisting them in professional development and advancement, and promoting the fair and equal administration of justice. The Association accomplishes these goals through the work of its committees, the presentation of continuing legal education programs, and the evaluation of judicial candidates. Through its affiliation with the Women's Bar Association of the State of New York, the Association also reviews and comments on proposed legislation and policy initiatives at the state, federal and international levels that are of concern to women and children.
