Judicial
mentoring project of the East Bay Diversity Bar Coalition
and Alameda County Bar Association

The Judicial Mentoring Project (JMP),
founded by the Alameda County Bar Association (ACBA)
and the East Bay Diversity Bar Coalition (EBDBC), is
established to provide attorneys contemplating a career
on the bench with a structured method of obtaining guidance
about how to reach that goal. Experienced judges will
be able to provide valuable feedback and assistance
to potential judicial candidates to help them hone the
necessary skills for a judicial career.
Deadline Extended: The application
deadline has been extended to September 15, 2007.
Confidentiality: Please note that
the ACBA will preserve the privacy, confidentiality
and security of the information included in applications
submitted. The EBDBC subcommittee that will review applications
and match mentors with mentees will be comprised of
the EBDBC Co-Chairs and the ACBA Executive Director—Judge
Trina Thompson Stanley, Christine Noma and Ann Wassam,
respectively.
The Handbook: To download a copy
of the Judicial Mentoring Project handbook, which includes
the mentor and mentee applications, please visit acbanet.org
