DINING CIRCLE INITIATIVE

The Women Lawyers of Franklin County will again offer the "Dining Circle" Initiative for 2023-2024. The Dining Circle Initiative is a mentoring and networking program that provides members with an opportunity to meet other women attorneys in the community and to share experiences in a relaxed environment. Each Dining Circle Group will consist of up to 10 women with varying professional backgrounds who will meet once a month during the program year. There are no formal rules or expectations with this program – it is simply intended to connect women who may otherwise not have the opportunity to meet.

 

All interested attorneys and law students are welcome to participate - from experienced attorneys to new associates, government lawyers to in-house counsel, firm-based attorneys to solo practitioners, and judges as well! Our attorney members love connecting with law students, so all law students are encouraged to sign up, too.

Several group options are available to meet members' wide-range of scheduling needs: Breakfast, Mid-Morning Coffee, Lunch, Mid-Afternoon Coffee, Happy Hour, and Virtual. Each group will have a designated leader who has the responsibility of scheduling each month’s get together.

Any attorney or law student may participate in a Dining Circle by becoming a member of WLFC. Annual dues are only $65 for lawyers, and membership is free for law students. Membership provides a year of high-quality

networking, mentoring, and educational opportunities.

The application for the 2023-2024 period is open!
