StarChapter of the Month

American Immigration Lawyers Association DC Chapter

If you struggle to get new members engaged with chapter activities such as attending meetings and volunteering for committees, you might want to learn from our Nation’s Capital City chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). We spoke with Joung Eun Lee who currently serves as a board chair and learned about programs organized by their New Members Division to improve new member engagement and other initiatives led by the board volunteers to raise awareness for the profession through local and national programs. The chapter’s plans for the next year are ambitious, including expansion into new geographies in the larger DC Metropolitan area as well as offering more online resources. Click to read their story.
