An ally is any person who actively utilizes privilege to promote a culture of inclusion. Allies listen to and affirm the experiences of marginalized people. In the legal profession, allies provide growth opportunities and mentorship to colleagues from marginalized groups and speak out when inequities arise. This program will provide tips on cultivating inclusion, improving allyship, and promoting anti-racism in the legal profession.
