Dear CLEBC Contributors,
As we reflect on the achievements of 2025, the CLEBC team would like to extend our deep appreciation for the expertise, energy, and dedication you have brought to our work this year. Your commitment has been the foundation of what we have accomplished together.
With your support, both our publications and program departments have continued to thrive. Your contributions ensure that what we produce—from written materials to live and online learning—remains both practical and relevant, providing legal professionals with the trusted tools they need as their practices evolve.
We also extend our heartfelt thanks to our Board of Directors, whose thoughtful leadership and guidance have been greatly appreciated throughout the year.
As we look ahead to 2026, we are excited to celebrate CLEBC’s 50th anniversary. Reaching this milestone is a wonderful testament to our many decades of dedicated work and to the extraordinary community of contributors who have shaped and supported our mission. We have many initiatives and celebrations planned for our 50th milestone year, and we look forward to sharing them with you in the months ahead.
To everyone who has devoted their time, talent, and wisdom to CLEBC, please accept our deepest gratitude. It has been a privilege to collaborate with you, and we look forward to another exceptional year ahead as we celebrate this historic milestone together.

With profound thanks,
Linda W. Russell and the CLEBC team
