Annual Report Letter from the President Boston Bar Association

Dear Members, Colleagues, and Friends: This year has been unlike any other, here in Boston, throughout the Commonwealth, and across the nation. In the legal community, we have experienced unprecedented disruption in our professional and personal lives, as well as a surge in need for legal representation for the most vulnerable among us. Throughout this turmoil, one thing at the BBA has remained constant: the dedication and commitment of our members. In response to the many challenges of 2020, our volunteers have stepped up to contribute their time and talents to our profession and our greater community: from engaging in professional development programming, to supporting the next generation of lawyers, to donating time and expertise to underserved clients and legal services organizations. Whether you participated in a virtual pro bono training, helped organize a webinar, attended a section or steering committee meeting, or signed into a virtual event, you have been a vital part of the success of this organization. Thanks to our 135+ sponsor institutions, 13,000+ members and countless community partners, the Boston Bar has been able to continue our critical work, even while working remotely: • We continued to be an innovative leader in professional excellence, hosting over 150 virtual programs since March and reaching nearly 6,000 people. • We remained passionate advocates, publishing critical reports, forming working groups and task forces, and drafting guides to assist pro se litigants in navigating virtual court proceedings. • We served the needs of our members in every stage of practice, from launching a new Law Firm Leadership Forum, to forming a series of virtual programs and events for law students. • We expanded our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts by growing our Diversity & Inclusion Summer Fellowship program, hosting a series of intimate and candid webinars, and continuing our important work with our Affinity Bar Partners. • And we welcomed 11 new Sponsor Firms to the BBA community. We hope you will read on to learn more about the incredible work made possible this year by our leaders, members, volunteers and partners, and maybe discover something about the Boston Bar Association that you might not have known before. As we continue to adjust to the evolving landscape, the Boston Bar Association remains dedicated to serving its members and our community, and we are deeply appreciative of your support.

Sincerely,

Christine M. Netski Boston Bar Association President 2019-2020 Letter from the President Boston Bar Foundation

To our Donors, Members, Volunteers and Community Partners:

It has been my privilege to serve as President of the Boston Bar Foundation for the past two years. I could not be more proud of all the work that we have accomplished together, particularly during challenging times like these.

Despite the uncertainty we have faced, and that ahead of us, the Boston Bar Foundation remains committed to its mission to promote justice by funding innovation in legal services, to improve access to justice for those who need it most, and to support the public interest activities of the Boston Bar Association.

This year, the Foundation supported many BBA projects, including the BBA’s Right to Counsel in Eviction Cases Report, a series of virtual hearing resources guides for pro se litigants, and the formation of a Crisis Response Working Group, designed to meet the moment and focus on addressing the legal issues presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The BBF Joan B. DiCola Fund, established to support BBA professional development programs, was integral in supporting the BBA’s capacity to provide members over 150 virtual programs, reaching nearly 6,000 people across the legal community.

In the year since our Drive for 5 Campaign was launched, over 150 new, existing, and sustaining members of the Society of Fellows contributed nearly $230,000 towards our endowment goal—bringing us closer to long-term stability for the Boston Bar Foundation.

This summer, the BBF was pleased to increase its granting level to over $1.1 million, and brought on several new grantee organizations. The legal support provided by BBF grantee organizations ensures that our most vulnerable community members can obtain equitable access to life-altering support during these challenging times.

All this work would not be possible without our many supporters throughout the year. Thank you to your commitment to the Boston Bar Foundation’s mission and I look forward to our continued work together as donors and volunteers.

Sincerely,

Together in: Professional Excellence Webinars and Complete Transition to Online Programming

In the span of just five months, BBA volunteers transitioned to all programming online, resulting in over 150 webinars, virtual events and two virtual industry conferences reaching nearly 6,000 people. These programs have focused on everything from substantive updates in various practice areas and soft skills trainings on how to work in a remote environment, to diversity, equity and inclusion seminars and critical pro bono trainings. We launched on-demand videos and podcasts, allowing our members to access programming not just in real time, but anytime, anywhere. The Latest COVID Guidance and Navigating Remote Practice

Section, Forum and Industry Group leaders mobilized quickly to provide relevant, high-quality programming and resources on pandemic-related changes in the law, best practices for meeting client needs, and how to navigate remote proceedings. Some of our top programs in this area included:

Remote work also posed hurdles for new lawyers dependent on mentorship and career development.

In response to these challenges, the BBA expanded its mentoring programs and hosted several roundtables for practitioners to stay connected, discuss shared 150+ challenges and offer best practices to foster well-being. Webinars & These challenges were particularly acute for 2020 law school graduates entering Virtual Events the profession. To support these graduates, we expanded our popular Bar Exam Coaching Program to include Career Transition Coaching. To date, we have paired over 50 recent graduates with attorney volunteers to provide mentorship and guidance.

As law firms across the city grappled with the unprecedented challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the forum distributed a survey to firm leaders and administrators to gather information on how firms were responding to the pandemic. The forum then hosted a roundtable with over 65 firm leaders from across the city to share the results of the survey to help inform the law firm community and talk through how to collectively navigate the challenges surrounding business continuity and support for attorneys. The forum will continue to convene firm leaders to address ongoing developments.

Annual Meeting Speaker Addresses Housing Discrimination At our Annual Meeting last fall, the keynote speaker was Richard Rothstein, whose work explores the various insidious ways that housing policies have discriminated against African-Americans for decades and how the effects of these systemic inequities continue to persist in the current landscape of our neighborhoods. Rothstein is the author of The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America, which recovers a forgotten history of how federal, state, and local policy explicitly segregated metropolitan areas nationwide. Those issues have taken on even greater urgency during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has brought these concerns into sharper relief. Ongoing BBA Policy Priorities, Advocacy and Amicus Work

In addition to emerging priorities brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the BBA remained an active voice in a number of our core issues including funding for legal services (MLAC), the court system and public defenders (CPCS). In April, BBA President Christine Netski and President-Elect Martin Murphy took part in the first Digital ABA Day to meet with the Massachusetts delegation in Congress and lobby for legal services funding and the public-service student loan forgiveness program. In addition to emerging priorities brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the BBA remained an active voice in a number of our core issues.

Judicial Independence: Promoting Justice and Maintaining Democracy An Active Year for the Since our August 2019 report on the topic, we remain Amicus Committee focused on threats to judicial independence, and on the role of lawyers in defending individual judges and the judicial Over the past year, the BBA’s Amicus system from unjustified attacks.

Against Judges Together in: Service CORI Sealing Clinic Continues The BBA was pleased to continue our monthly CORI Sealing Clinic this year. Our CORI Sealing Clinic assists low-income clients in asking courts to seal their criminal records with help from volunteer attorneys. The BBA conducts this clinic along with our partner, Greater Boston Legal Services (GBLS). The project engages practitioners and law students from across the Boston legal community, including in-house counsel. Although the clinic was on a brief pause in response to COVID-19 court closures, the clinic has now been adapted to a virtual format and will continue in fall 2020. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CORI Sealing Clinic engaged 15 volunteer attorneys and served 20+ clients in January, February and March.

Virtual Hearing Guides for Self-Represented Litigants In May of this year, the BBA joined forces with the Massachusetts Access to Justice Commission’s COVID-19 Task Force to draft resource guides for both practitioners and self-represented litigants attending virtual hearings. These guides are composed of the best practices and fundamental information necessary to successfully navigate telephonic and video hearings in the Courts. They also provided self-represented litigants clear, comprehensive information for attending a virtual hearing and how to continue accessing the Courts during the closures. After their release, the guides were shared widely on various listservs, amongst practitioners, on judicial websites, and were lauded for their straightforward and helpful approach for practitioners and pro se litigants alike. Law Day in the Schools Adapted to a Virtual Format in 2020 This year’s Law Day in the Schools was set to begin just as schools were forced to close their doors due to COVID-19. The BBA quickly altered the lesson plan so that it could be given virtually as classrooms switched online. This year’s theme, “Your Vote. Your Voice. Our Democracy: The 19th Amendment at 100.” and the virtual lesson plan were distributed to Boston Public Schools, all BBA Members, and anyone that requested it so that it could be used by all teachers and first-time homeschool teachers alike.The new virtual format allowed the program to be shared and accessed in homes by students and families across the Commonwealth. The adapted lesson plan celebrated the 100th anniversary of the enfranchisement of women and featured a book entitled, “Marching with Aunt Susan,” which highlighted Susan B. Anthony’s role in the women’s suffrage movement. The lesson plan centered the movement in a broader conversation about students utilizing their voting power when they are of age. Teachers, parents, caregivers, and students were encouraged to engage in conversations about representation and what voting means in a democratic society.

“Like so many other families, my family knew we had to stay away from our typical activities to support the nurses, doctors, and other caregivers keeping us all safe. But with schools closing, parents in the legal industry knew that they had one (or several) very demanding clients that took precedence and had newfound time on their hands: our kids. Educators and educational platforms have been great in terms of sharing materials, but BBA’s lesson plan added a nice twist because it focused my interest in the law and civil rights issues with my oldest son’s interest in history.” – Phil Catanzano, Holland & Knight Together for: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Diversity, Equity The BBA Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Section remained active this spring and summer, meeting the moment as a nationwide dialogue on racial injustice and inequality in our society sparked necessary reflection and action, and the ongoing public health crisis amplified racial disparities within the community and legal profession. The DEI Section hosted three significant programs this summer including: • Practicing Inclusivity While Working Remotely: How are Organizations Maintaining and Advancing D&I Initiatives • How to Be an Effective Ally • Amplifying Unheard Voices Series These programs brought together over 500 participants collectively—amplifying Black voices within the profession, providing an in-depth, actionable roadmap for individuals to be an ally for their colleagues in the workplace, and strategies for organizations to ensure genuine inclusivity and the retention of diverse talent. We are pleased to continue this programming in the coming year and advance our work to promote a diverse, equitable and inclusive profession.

“You should wake up every day trying to figure out how to be anti-racist. How can you do better at it than you did yesterday? Challenge your assumptions and practices. Look at the young people who are leading. Otherwise, you’re merely perpetuating historic injustices.” – Jonathan Allen, The Leadership Brainery on allyship Beacon Award

The 2019 Beacon Award for Diversity & Inclusion was held at the Cambridge Multicultural Arts Center, welcoming over 200 members of the Boston legal community to celebrate work to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion in the legal profession. The Voice of Change Award, recognizing a leader in the legal community who has forged a new path and played an extensive role in advancing diversity and inclusion within the profession, was presented to Yalonda T. Howze of Mintz.

“We stand together today at a critical time in history. A vibrant, diverse, inclusive and multicultural society can not be taken for granted.” – Yalonda Howze, Mintz

The Corporate Champion Award, recognizing an in-house legal department that has been a leader in internal or external projects and practices that promote a more diverse and inclusive legal profession, was awarded to Liberty Mutual. Accepting the award was Liberty Mutual’s Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer, Jim Kelleher. Kelleher explained that the company and its legal department strive not only to increase diversity among employees, but, just as importantly, to foster a welcoming environment.

“All the diversity is for nothing if it’s not an inclusive environment where employees can bring their entire selves,” Kelleher said. “We can’t expect people to check their religion, sexual orientation, or other identities at the door.” – Jim Kelleher, Liberty Mutual

The Empowerment Award, presented to a powerful advocate that works to create systemic change in the wider community by amplifying the voices of underrepresented groups was presented to the partnership between Greater Boston Legal Services’ (GBLS’s) Asian Outreach Project and the Asian American Resource Workshop (AARW) for their collaboration in responding to the escalated deportation action against Southeast Asian refugee and immigrant communities by raising public awareness, mounting a legal defense campaign, and building community networks and organizing power. Kevin Lam, Organizing Director at AARW, and Bethany Li, Senior Staff Attorney and Director of the Asian Outreach Project at GBLS, accepted the award on behalf of their respective organizations. In total, the event raised over $140,000, and the silent auction raised close to $11,000 for the BBF Beacon Fund to support the BBA’s Diversity & Inclusion Summer Fellowship program, which places Massachusetts law students into paid internships in public interest law offices. This record breaking total enabled us to expand the program to three paid positions. Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Summer Fellowship Expands and Continues Virtually in Second Year “Perhaps my favorite thing about the experience was This summer, we continued our new Diversity, how my fellowship never came up in discussions, I Equity & Inclusion Summer Fellowship Program, was simply part of the class of interns during last which provides access to critical work experience summer.

“Diversity and Inclusion is a lifelong commitment—I will always promote and strive for diversity and inclusion in all spaces for all people in and beyond my legal career. I appreciated the commitment that the Office displayed in ensuring a space in which marginalized individuals felt heard, seen, and supported. Summer of 2020 is definitely one for the books, and I am grateful that I could spend this summer at the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office.” – Rosa Kim, 2020 DEI Fellow

Affinity Bar Partnerships We have been able to work with the Affinity Bars on utilizing BBA resources during the pandemic to support their remote programming and meetings logistics. Since March of 2020, the BBA has hosted our Affinity Bar partners virtually in dozens of meetings, including Board Meetings, an Annual Retreat, several programs and panels including a SABA GB webinar on e-networking during the pandemic, and a joint MBLA & MAHA Meet the Candidates Q&A forum with the candidates for Governor’s Council, in addition to many other social happy hour events. We partnered with the SJC Standing Committee on Lawyer Well-Being to support a series of Affinity Bar Town Halls engaging with members of the legal community in candid discussions on well-being challenges. The Town Hall style meetings were held with individual Affinity Bar Associations to discuss specific well-being challenges for their communities and ideas for change. Together to: Learn & Celebrate Annual Meeting

The 2019 Annual Meeting breakfast was a morning of important and insightful discussion on the history of housing and segregation in 20th century America.

Keynote Speaker Richard Rothstein spoke about his 2017 book, The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How our Government Segregated America. He discussed how decades of local, state, and federal housing policies that mandated segregation created a racial and cultural divide and continue to have enormous and lasting impacts on American society today. In his book, Mr. Rothstein notes, “The segregation of our metropolitan areas today leads … to stagnant inequality.”

The BBA presented the 2019 John G. Brooks Legal Services Award to four area organizations working together to fight housing displacement: City Life Vida Urbana, Greater Boston Legal Services, Harvard Legal Aid Bureau, and the WilmerHale Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School.

Adams Benefit

The 2020 John & Abigail Adams Benefit welcomed over 1,200 members of the Boston’s legal community to support the Boston Bar Foundation’s mission of expanding access to justice and engaging members of the bar in public service. BBF President Diana Lloyd presented the 2020 Public Service Award to Eastern Bank Chair and CEO, Bob Rivers, for his long-standing commitment and leadership in community service and philanthropy.

Thanks to our sponsors and attendees, we raised over $740,000. The net proceeds from this event support the BBF’s important work in our community, including direct grants to local legal aid organizations.

Virtual Law Day

Our annual Law Day Celebration was took place virtually on July 30th , with over 250 registrants and 25 event sponsors from across the Greater Boston community. BBA President Christine Netski opened the celebration by recognizing the unwavering dedication and commitment of lawyers here in Boston after a time of unprecedented challenges and transformative changes to our society.

Christine Netski presented the Thurgood Marshall Award to Ropes & Gray LLP for their pro bono work on a landmark voting rights case and the 2020 President’s Award to Jayne B.

The BBA Law Day in the Schools Program has successfully transitioned to a virtual format. Members, parents, caregivers, and teachers alike have engaged with our new learn-at-home lesson plan.

This program is supported in part by the BBFFrancis Moran Fund, established in 2002 to help support and implement the goals of the BBA’s former Children and Youth Outreach Project. TheJoan B.

In the past five months, we have hosted over 150 educational webinars, pro bono trainings, social gatherings, industry conferences, and major events remotely.

Drive for 5 Campaign Brings BBF Closer to Endowment Goal

In 2019 The Boston Bar Foundation launched the Drive for 5 Campaign in an effort to reach the $5 million endowment goal set by the organization eight years ago. The campaign calls on existing members of the Society of Fellows to consider upgrading their pledges or expediting their pledge payments, which are permanent gifts to our endowment that will benefit the Greater Boston community for years to come.

In the year since the campaign was launched, over 150 new, existing and sustaining members of the Society of Fellows, have contributed nearly $230,000 towards our endowment goal. With just over $100,000 to go to $5 million, we are closer to this goal, and a future of long-term stability for the Boston Bar Foundation, than ever before.
