Scholarships

The Foundation, the charitable arm of the National Bar Association Women Lawyers Division, awards the Justice Juanita Kidd Stout Tuition Scholarship and Dr. Sadie T. M. Alexander Book Scholarships each year to qualified African American female law students who demonstrate a commitment to the principles of Justice Juanita Kidd Stout and Dr. Sadie T. M. Alexander.

Our Point of view aka "POV"

The 2023-2024 Executive Board would like to thank all of our members and supporters who continue to make WLD a "safe space" for all women of color in and around our profession here in the Philadelphia area. Our theme this year is “Our Point of view aka POV.” We chose this theme to highlight our journey, experiences, challenges, and growth from our very own point of view. Our narratives are often shaped through the lens of others and often leave out our voice. This year, we take that autonomy back by sharing our own journey and experiences in our voice. By doing so, we hope to remind and inspire both our current and future members to take ownership of their narratives and carry that with them throughout their professional journey. Additional information will be provided to those who RSVP. If you have any questions, contact us at wld@nbawldphila.org
