GBA Committees

Committees

GBA committees work to provide our members with continuing legal education, networking and fellowship opportunities, and peer recognition for outstanding service to our association and the community. More importantly, participation promotes volunteerism and support for area schools and non-profits; and we partner with Legal Aid of North Carolina to remove legal barriers to economic opportunities through criminal record expunctions provided by the Second Chance Project. To join a committee today, print the 2022-2023 Committee Service Sign Up Form and send it to the GBA office.
