Law Day 2007
Liberty Under Law: Empowering Youth, Assuring Democracy
Tuesday, May 1, 2007
In an effort to raise awareness and coordination for Law Day 2007, the MBA's Law Related Education Working Group, formed in conjunction with the Massachusetts Judicial Branch, is compiling a list of events occurring throughout Massachusetts on May 1, 2007.
Coordinators of such programs from the Massachusetts bar and court system are encouraged to complete the Law Day 2007 Survey. For a preview of events held across Massachusetts in honor of Law Day 2007, click here.
According to the American Bar Association, "the 2007 Law Day theme prompts us to listen to the voices of young people and consider how the law can better serve their needs and interests. It also encourages us to assure that our youth are equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively make their voices heard within our democracy."
