Fellows support the research work of the American Bar Foundation through annual contributions, sponsor seminars, and events of direct relevance to leaders of the legal profession.
The American Bar Foundation serves the legal profession, the public, and the academy through empirical research, publications, and programs that advance justice and the understanding of law and its impact on society.
