Mid-Hudson Women's Bar Association
About Mid-Hudson Women's Bar Association
Rooted in Poughkeepsie, NY, the Mid-Hudson Women's Bar Association represents a dedicated community of attorneys and judges committed to advancing equality and fairness in the legal profession and society at large. As an established chapter of the Women's Bar Association of the State of New York, the organization carries forward a long-honored tradition of advocacy and community impact. The association's membership spans five counties—Dutchess, Ulster, Putnam, Columbia, and Greene—creating a robust network of legal professionals united by shared values and commitment to social justice. For decades, WBASNY has championed transformative legal change, standing at the forefront of efforts to reform laws affecting domestic violence, achieve equity in marital dissolution proceedings, ensure fairness in custody determinations, combat sexual violence, and eliminate workplace discrimination. The Mid-Hudson chapter embodies these principles through active engagement with local legal issues and community needs. Members find more than professional advancement; they discover a supportive community of peers who understand the unique challenges facing women in the legal profession and broader society. The organization fosters genuine relationships among attorneys and judges while maintaining focus on meaningful legislative impact that improves lives for women, children, and families throughout the Mid-Hudson Valley. By participating in the Mid-Hudson Women's Bar Association based in Poughkeepsie, legal professionals join a purposeful movement dedicated to both personal growth and collective progress toward a more equitable legal system.
