JWLA Hosts “Grow in Your Career” May Lunch

The Jacksonville Women Lawyers Association hosted its May luncheon at the River Club. This month, the presentation, “Grow in your Career: What Got You Here Won’t Get You There: How to Prepare NOW for Your Next Role” was presented by Elise Holtzman.

The program examined the skills, behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs you must shift to progress, how to resist the natural pressure to maintain the status quo, and how to overcome inertia and create your path forward.

This month’s luncheon spotlighted the JWLA Kathy Para Student Internship at Jacksonville Area Legal Aid. The internship offers critical legal experience for a law student, while also providing needed legal services in the local community. This internship will fund at least one paid part-time position for a law student intern each summer to do the important work of JALA. Every $10 donated funds one hour of student time.
