Through staff-wide events, community outings and official policy updates, Connecticut law firms flourished with diversity-focused initiatives over the past year, putting inclusiveness at the top of the agenda. Individuals and firms showed their commitment by encouraging members to talk about issues of race, gender and culture, and to bring their concerns to the table.

The following winners of Diversity Initiative awards from the 2021 Connecticut Legal Awards are just a sampling of the many programs that have sprung up across the state, led by people who are dedicated to fairness and equity on the job and in their provision of legal services.
