Greetings,

As President of the National Association of Bench and Bar Spouses Foundation, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our page.

Since 1969, NABBS Foundation has been supporting the legal education of high achieving, underrepresented law students by awarding the NABBS Foundation, Dorothy Atkinson Legal Education Scholarship. This year, we celebrate fifty-one years of awarding legal education scholarships. Our community impact is also evident in NABBS Foundation programs such as the Bonnie P. Wheatley/Grace L. Wheatley Breast Cancer Health Forum and the Annie Lawrence Brown Health Initiatives. We are committed to our efforts as an organization to improving our community.

Thank you for your support! 

Yamona Pierce
