Thanks from President Kimberly D. Deal, Esq. 

Greetings ABWL-NJ! Welcome to the start of our new year! I’m excited for what’s to come. I’m glad to report the success of our 2022-2023 President and Executive Board Installation Program and Reception which took place on August 27 at 11 AM at the New Jersey Law Center in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The program was well attended.  We were joined by ABWL members, members of the Affinity Bars, the judiciary, family and friends. We were also joined by co-founder, Dolores Pegram Wilson who provided the History of ABWL.  I’m so grateful for the outpouring of support from sponsors, advertisers, well wishers and ABWL members: Deirdre Webster Cobb, Esq. and El-Rhonda Williams Alston, Esq. who coordinated the entire effort and was joined by our immediate past president, Jennifer Downing–Mathis, who served as the Mistress of Ceremony. I’m so grateful to everyone who assisted in various ways to make the Installation Program and Reception possible.  

Thank you again I’m looking forward to a wonderful year working with the Executive Board, Committee Chairs and member of ABWL to make this year as success. 

I share with you once again the poem I dedicated at the Installation to the Executive Board and the Women of ABWL entitled “Hey Queen” …
