  Toy Drive
  Please also bring toys to donate to the Milwaukee Women’s Center, a division of Community Advocates that provides comprehensive services and treatment for women, men and children whose lives have been affected by domestic violence, substance abuse, mental health issues, and poverty.
  
  We are looking for toys and games for children of all ages, with a special need for ages 10-18. Milwaukee Women’s Center will also accept used iPods and MP3 players, as well as gift cards, books of all ages, and hoodies and sweats of all ages and sizes. Please do not wrap your gifts, as the staff can better allocate the gifts if they can see what they are. However, do feel free to donate gift wrap, ribbon, and bows in lieu of (or in addition to) your toy donations. Checks made payable to Community Advocates will also be accepted.
  
  AWL members are encouraged to make this event a toy drive at your firm too. What a great way to get everyone involved in the spirit of giving!
  

  Registration is limited, so respond soon to reserve your spot!

  Join us for a free, members-only ethics CLE, presented by AWL member Stacie Rosenzweig.

  Gender-based harassment is, unfortunately, still a widespread problem, and lawyers are not immune. In a recent survey, 21.9% of white women lawyers and 25.3% of women lawyers of color reported experiencing harassing behavior at work (whether from supervisors, colleagues, clients, or judges).

  This CLE session will explore sexual harassment through the lens of the Rules of Professional Conduct. Learn what the Rules say about such behavior, what discipline may follow, and what lawyers can do to root out sexual harassment and hold accountable those who engage in it.

  We will be applying for 1 ethics CLE credit.
  

  Both in-person and virtual attendance are available.
  Register early! In-person space is limited and closes December 5th.  Your registration includes lunch.
