Programs and Initiatives

Since 2016, the New York Chapter of the Coalition has offered a wide variety of programming appealing to women attorneys at various stages of their careers. In 2020, we have been able to successfully pivot many of our programs to an online platform, allowing us to reach even broader audiences.

Upcoming Events

Literary Lawyers Series with Lauren Willig, NYT Bestselling Author
Thursday, March 10 at 1:00pm ET via Zoom
Please join New York Coalition board member Christina Bost Seaton and New York Times bestselling author Lauren Willig in a conversation about Lauren’s transition from being a practicing attorney to the author of more than twenty works of historical fiction, which have been translated into over a dozen languages. In honor of Women’s History Month, Lauren will also be discussing her most-recent book, Band of Sisters, which is a sweeping novel based on the remarkable true story of a group of alumna from Smith College who, as volunteers, go behind enemy lines in France during World War I in order to provide medical and other relief to civilians.
