CLC Young Lawyers Division Board Application

CLC is now accepting applications to fill TWO POSITIONS on the Young Lawyers Division (YLD) Board. To be elected to the CLC YLD Board, you must be a YLD member practicing at a CLC contributing law firm. YLD Board service is a great way to strengthen your leadership skills while furthering the mission of the CLC YLD. The YLD Board meets every other month for a one-hour in-person Board meeting in downtown Denver.  

One opening is for the Denver Legal Night Team: This team works with Denver Legal Night steering committee members and CLC Legal Program Administrator, Megan Dempsey, to ensure sufficient volunteer participation, host trainings, communicate with immigration and family lawyers, solicit feedback, work with Legal Night venues, and safeguard the sustainability of this valuable service to the Denver community. As a member of this team, you will be required to attend and co-facilitate at least 4 Legal Nights per year. It takes place on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month at Centro San Juan Diego from 5:30pm-8pm.

One opening is for the Fundraising & Events Team: This team plans several CLC YLD educational or networking events per year, including a Derby Party, happy hours and other networking events. This position will be shadowing an outgoing team member to learn about planning the Derby Party. The next Derby Party will take place on May 1, 2026. You will be required to take over co-planning the event for 2027.

Applications will be accepted until Wednesday, November 5, 2025.  We hope to make a decision by Tuesday, November 11, 2025. If you are selected for one of the openings, we will ask that you attend the YLD Board meeting on Wednesday, November 12th at 11:45am in downtown Denver.

If you have any questions, contact the YLD Chair, Jared Ertle.
