Hello?to our Law Student Friends of OWBA/OWBF! ? We’ve learned that some law schools are not willing or able to publicize our events and opportunities to you because of evolving policies around affinity groups and DEI, so we are asking YOU to please spread the word to your law student friends and classmates! ? The Ohio Women’s Bar Foundation (“OWBF”) is offering a need-based scholarship to 2 (two) female law students to cover the costs of a bar review course (to the extent bar review fees are not covered by law school tuition) and/or living expenses up to $2,500.?The purpose of this scholarship is to ensure that a future woman lawyer with non-profit, government, or uncertain employment plans does not experience financial hardship while studying for the bar exam. To apply, applicants should submit a 300-500 word statement by April 4th through the OWBF website. The statement should address the woman lawyer’s future employment plans, anticipated income (if known), and financial need, including the actual or anticipated cost of a bar review course (if not covered by law school tuition) and living expenses while studying. ? The award recipient will be officially recognized at the Ohio Women’s Bar Association / Ohio Women’s Bar Foundation Annual Meeting Luncheon May 9, 2025! ? Here is the link to apply?https://lnkd.in/gEBXKJpf ? Do you know an Ohio Female Law Student that could benefit from this opportunity??

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our International Women’s Day Yoga Event, co-hosted with the Columbus Bar Association and the Women Lawyers of Franklin County. This event was generously sponsored by Vorys. As women in law, we often balance demanding careers, leadership roles, and personal responsibilities, but prioritizing our well-being is essential to sustaining long-term success! A special thank you to Mallory Monhemius (Rohr) for being the OWBA event host! This session was a powerful reminder that mindfulness, movement, and intentional self-care are not luxuries, but necessities in our profession. Special thanks to Ohio Brewing Company for hosting a practice that encouraged balance, resilience, and restoration. Let’s continue to support each other in fostering wellness within the legal community. When we take care of ourselves, we show up stronger for our clients, our colleagues, and the future of the profession!
