LEAD Counsel - Making a Difference Conference

Inspiring Public Service

Leadership, Engagement, and Development, or LEAD Counsel for short, is a student organization comprised of Baylor Law students. The purpose of this group is to equip and inspire law students to serve in the public arena, whether as officeholders, lobbyists, or leaders in the non-profit sector.

LEAD Counsel organizes and hosts the annual Making a Difference Conference to engage and inspire members of the legal profession to get involved in public life, to use their legal training to make meaningful contributions to their communities and equip them to think critically and strategically about public service. The speakers and panels focus on ways law students and lawyers can combine their passions with their legal training – both now and in their future careers – to expand access to justice.
