Our goal is to increase diversity in the Association, in the legal management community and in all legal service organizations.

As a result, we launched the ALA Diversity Initiative - designed to increase awareness of and sensitivity to the differences among our workforce and to advance the concepts of inclusiveness and acceptance. To meet these goals ALA has created leadership panels, educational venues and programs.


The Committee on Diversity and Inclusion oversees ALA's Diversity Initiative. For more information contact us.

Chapter Awards

ALA annually sponsors its Chapter Awards program (members only access), which encourages chapters to participate in the Achievements in Diversity component. This is an additional way in which ALA's overall goal can be achieved and it assists legal administrators develop greater understanding, tolerance and enjoyment of diversity in all its forms.
