HLA LEADERSHIP
I am honored to lead our esteemed organization as we celebrate the milestone of our 70th year of service to the Houston community. Together, we embark upon a new era guided by our powerful theme for the year: 'Raising the Bar: Where Excellence Meets Impact’. We are mobilized to build upon our rich legacy, embrace the challenges and opportunities of our time, and continue our relentless pursuit of excellence in all endeavors.
Throughout the year, our calendar will be filled with dynamic and engaging programs crafted to educate, inspire, and foster connections among our members. Keeping our mission at the forefront, we vow to utilize our platform to champion causes and issues that resonate with our core values and principles. Leveraging our diverse talents, resources, and collective strength, we are committed to effecting meaningful change in both the legal profession and the communities we serve. Furthermore, we remain steadfast in our dedication to empowering future generations of legal minds.
Our organization thrives on service and advocacy, inspiring us to continuously push the boundaries as we pursue our shared goals and aspirations. Each member's contribution is invaluable to our collective success. I deeply appreciate your unwavering support and dedication to the African American Bar of Houston.
