Women in Law Leadership Information

Women in Law Leadership is a Canada Not-for-Profit Corporation dedicated to celebrating and advancing women in the law through recognition and education. Its roots date back to 2009 with the creation of the Women in Law Leadership Awards, co-founded by The Counsel Network and the Association of Women Lawyers. Since then, the organization has expanded the WILL Awards across the country. The Alberta WILL Awards have taken place annually since 2011 and the inaugural ON WILL Awards will take place in 2022, with the introduction of the Justice Abella Award. The organization has also created an education certification program for women lawyers called WILL Education.
