The Baton Rouge Bar Association invites you to Be Our Bar, or, as we like to say, BR Bar. This campaign celebrates what makes our association thrive: our members. It’s a call to current members to renew and to new members to join, reminding everyone that the strength of the BRBA lies in its people.
Through this campaign, we encourage members to:
Be Connected: Engage with our committees and sections to build relationships and share knowledge.
Be the Change: Give back through pro bono service, youth education and volunteer opportunities.
Be Informed: Stay engaged through The Baton Rouge Lawyer magazine, our weekly newsletter and other BRBA resources.
Hear from our members about why they chose to Be Our Bar. From career growth to community connection, their stories show what it means to be part of the Baton Rouge Bar Association.
Don’t just pay dues. Make them matter. Be ouR Bar.
