Community Service

PSALA's Community Service Committee is a very active committee that works to provide visibility for the Chapter through organized participation in community service. As members of PSALA, our mission, in part, is to (1) support the diverse community in which we live and to work through our members’ collective time, talents and contributions; (2) to provide Chapter members with opportunities to reach out to others; and (3) to lead by example, encouraging our local organizations to increase their volunteer efforts in the community. The Co-Chairs of the Community Service Committee for 2011-2012 are This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Each year we interview and select an organization with which we will partner to organize various fundraising events and projects throughout the year.


Diversity

The Puget Sound Chapter of the Association of Legal Administrators is a professional organization comprised of managers from private, corporate and governmental legal organizations in the Puget Sound area. PSALA embraces and encourages diversity within the legal profession. We value diversity and those initiatives that promote it and look to partner with affiliated professional legal organizations to advance diversity. We not only strive to raise awareness, but to increase our sensitivity in the area of diversity and more closely reflect the diversity of our community at large. Having a more inclusive and diverse legal community will improve the quality of our organization’s workforce and respond to our clients’ requirements for diversity.

As a committee, we are very interested in your thoughts, comments, and suggestions about achieving greater diversity in our Chapter, our profession, and in our firms.

Sustainability

One of PSALA’s goals is to increase awareness, understanding, and appreciation of sustainability within our organization and the legal community. We wish to inspire the legal community by highlighting innovation and commitment to social, environmental, and economic sustainability. Within that commitment, we are pleased to announce the rollout of the PSALA Sustainability Toolkit.  Similar to our Diversity Toolkit, the Sustainability Toolkit is a comprehensive guide to assist legal administrators with implementing and maintaining their own programs within their firms.  The toolkit is now available on our website and you can access it by clicking here.
Whether you are just starting out or you have already implemented a program, there is something in this toolkit for everyone.
