Historical Timeline
Founded in 1972, Minnesota Women Lawyers is an
association of more than 1,200 lawyers, judges, law students and other
professionals. MWL’s goals are to support the professional and leadership
development of women lawyers, to advocate on behalf of women lawyers within the
legal profession, and to support social action initiatives to end discrimination
in the justice system and promote equality of women in society. Minnesota Women
Lawyers’ programs, projects, and activities are guided by our organizational
values:
 | The legal profession and society benefit from
promoting and valuing diversity in all its forms. |
 | Women lawyers face common challenges and can
teach and learn from one another. |
 | A strong community of women lawyers is essential
to the legal profession and the administration of justice |
 | MWL celebrates the individual and collective
achievements of women lawyers and law students, and supports them throughout
their careers. |
 | MWL advocates
for the full equality of women in society and promotes initiatives to eliminate
all forms of discrimination. |
 | The practice of
law is enriched when lawyers fully participate in the lives of their families
and communities. |
