BROOKLYN WOMEN'S BAR ASSOCIATION
WELCOME TO THE
A century ago, on April 11, 1918, nine dynamic women lawyers united to form the Brooklyn Women’s Bar Association (BWBA) for the purpose of achieving equality, diversity, fairness and opportunity for women lawyers and all women.
Since then, the Association has grown to include over 400 members and, through its affiliation with the Women’s Bar Association of the State of New York (WBASNY), has spearheaded countless advances for women. This article traces the history of the BWBA from 2005 to the Association’s centennial in 2018.
