OUR MISSION: The Colorado Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgender ("GLBT") Bar Association is a voluntary professional association of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender attorneys, judges, paralegals and law students and allies who provide a GLBT presence within Colorado's legal community. Join or renew your 2009 membership here. You can learn about our many activities by reading our 2009 President's Welcome Letter.

OUR EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES: Each quarter the Colorado GLBT Bar Association hosts some fabulous social events. Join us for our Annual Judicial Reception on Thursday, July 9, 2009 at the lovely home and gardens of Milo Gonser and Steve Kiely.

LAW STUDENT OUTREACH: The Colorado GLBT Bar Association runs a mentor/mentee program for law students and holds and sponsors educational at both the University of Denver Sturm College of Law and CU Boulder Law School. Law students are encouraged to join the Colorado GLBT Bar Association at a special rate. See our Membership page.

OUR PURPOSE: The Colorado GLBT Bar Association exists to promote the recognition of civil and human rights; promote sensitivity to legal issues faced by the GLBT community; assure the fair and just treatment of members of the GLBT community; provide opportunities for GLBT attorneys, judges, and law students and allies to interact in a professional setting; build alliances with other minority bar associations and legal organizations; and enhance the practice and professional expertise of lawyers who serve or who are members of the GLBT community.
