Diversity in the Legal Profession Joint Committee

The Diversity in the Legal Profession (DILP) Committee of the Colorado and Denver Bar Associations is comprised of dedicated attorneys, law students, and legal professionals from the Denver and Colorado legal communities as well as representatives from the University of Colorado Law School and the University of Denver Sturm College of Law.  Its mission is to break down the long-standing barriers that have prevented diverse attorneys from fully succeeding in the legal profession.  DILP's goal is to cultivate diversity within the legal community and work with law schools, law students, practicing lawyers, and legal employers throughout Colorado to promote diversity at all levels. DILP sponsors annual awards for individuals and organizations that promote diversity.

DILP has joined forces with the Pipeline Working Group to engage young diverse students and encourage them to consider a career in law.

DILP meets the first Tuesday of even-numbered months from 4:00-4:30 p.m. in the CBA offices at 19th & Grant Streets in Denver. All are welcome to join DILP and attend meetings.

DILP Chair:  Meshach Rhoades
