MWL extends its sincere thanks to the countless
volunteers and legal employers who shared their time and talents during the past
year. It is through this strong support that MWL achieves its success.
MWL also extends a special thanks to outgoing
President Luz Maria Frias for her inspiring and dedicated leadership over the
past year. Just as Luz challenged MWL members to consider their personal
legacy, Luz has left her own legacy to MWL. Among her many accomplishments
during her term as President, Luz led MWL through a successful strategic
planning process. The resulting plan will serve as a foundation for years to come.
