The Equal Justice Conference is an annual event co-hosted by the American Bar Association (ABA) Standing Committee on Pro Bono & Public Service and the National Legal Aid & Defender Association (NLADA). This conference brings together legal services and pro bono advocates to discuss developments and innovations in providing legal services to low-income individuals. The 2011 Equal Justice Conference took place from May 18 to May 21 at the Las Vegas Hilton in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The conference covered a wide range of topics pertinent to the legal aid community, including strategies for enhancing pro bono services, addressing the civil legal needs of low-income populations, and fostering partnerships among key players in the civil justice system. Sessions focused on best practices, emerging trends, and innovative approaches to delivering legal assistance effectively.

Attendees had opportunities to engage in networking events, participate in workshops, and attend plenary sessions featuring notable speakers from the legal aid sector. The conference also included an expo hall where organizations showcased resources and tools designed to support legal service providers.

The Equal Justice Conference is ideal for legal professionals, pro bono coordinators, and advocates committed to advancing equal access to justice. Participants gain valuable insights, share experiences, and collaborate on solutions to challenges facing the legal aid community.
