The WBA Mothers' Forum hosts brown-bag lunches on the second Tuesday of the month, at the offices of Bingham McCutchen at 150 Federal Street in Boston, beginning at 12:30. Contact one of the committee chairs to join the email discussion group and get updated information about future meetings and program topics.

How do you fit it all in? How can you make it work as a lawyer, as well as a mother? The Mothers' Forum Committee seeks to provide a forum for women to discuss issues related to balancing home and family commitments with being a lawyer and the intersection of these two important parts of you. The Mothers' Forum Committee also seeks ways for our profession to include, accommodate and advance mothers within its ranks. We encourage the involvement of new moms, not-so-new moms, soon-to-be-moms and others who are trying to balance their family and work lives in all of our committee events.
