Thank you to Northern Illinois University for the article on President Sonni Williams' historic Illinois State Bar Association presidency! #NIU #NIULaw NIU College of Law
Sonni Choi Williams, J.D. ’99, was installed this year as the 148th president of the Illinois State Bar Association (ISBA), the first woman attorney of color to helm the organization. “This historic advancement is not for me, but for so many others who have put their hopes and dreams in my rise to the highest position in the organization,” she said. "I hope that my presidency inspires others after me to take the leap of faith and follow me, thus making the ISBA more welcoming and inclusive of attorneys who have long been under-represented in the ISBA leadership.” Read her story here: https://bit.ly/3WStfY0
