The J. Reuben Clark Law Society Executive Committee of the International Board initiated the Women in the Law Committee to facilitate the participation of women in leadership roles in the Society and the legal profession. The mission statement of the Women in the Law Committee is:

We affirm the strength brought to the law by including and celebrating women who bring their personal religious conviction to their practice of the law. We strive through professional excellence, public service, and an open exchange of ideas to promote fairness and equal opportunities for women in the law.

The following list provides details on members of the Committee. We welcome and encourage you to provide input to the Committee members.
