President's Message

Welcome to the Greater Rochester Association for Women Attorneys. I am honored to serve as GRAWA’s 43^rd President and to lead an organization of incredible women rooted in strength, purpose and community. This year, our theme is CONNECTIONS—because our strength lies not only in our individual accomplishments, but in how we support, mentor, and inspire one another. Whether you’re a new member or a long-standing leader, I encourage you to stay engaged, explore our events, and find meaningful ways to connect with your colleagues and your community. I hope this year brings new connections that enrich your practice, deepen your impact, and remind you that you are never in this work alone. Together we are powerful!

Yours in service,

Jen Aronson
43^rd President, GRAWA
Partner, Hodgson Russ LLP
