Women's Caucus
Providing a gateway to leadership for women members, the caucus offers a social forum for new professional relationships, mentoring and advancement in the legal field.

Welcome to the Women’s Caucus! The mission of the Women’s Caucus is to inspire, inform, and engage women members and to provide a gateway to leadership within CAOC and the bar generally.
 
The Caucus organizes networking events and activities in all of the categories CAOC promotes, including political development, legislative lobbying, membership development, education, and community service. Last year, the Women’s Caucus fundraised, recruited almost 100 members for CAOC, organized community service days, sponsored networking events, and helped the Convention education effort.
 
Email us for an invite to our monthly conference calls or for more information about our activities. We look forward to your participation!
