Current USLAW NETWORK Board of Directors will remain in place through 2021
POSTED OCTOBER 19, 2020
At the recent USLAW NETWORK annual membership meeting – held virtually due to the pandemic – the USLAW membership unanimously voted to maintain the current USLAW Board of Directors for an additional year. This vote supported a limited waiver/modification of the election procedures for 2020 allowing the entire current Board to remain in place for one additional year (2020-21).
“The current Board has been intimately involved in the challenges of COVID-19, and having that experience remain in place for one additional year will be critical for consistency and continuity as we navigate the expected challenges of the next several months,” said Roger M. Yaffe, USLAW CEO.
The USLAW Board of Directors has been highly engaged to steer the organization through these difficult pandemic times and ensure that all members and their clients have access to the timely resources and extensive engagement with the NETWORK. With the Board’s leadership, the NETWORK quickly adapted and created several new, exciting initiatives to deliver timely resources focused on COVID-19 and looking ahead to 2021 and beyond.
