Redefining the legal path for women.

Ms. JD champions women in law, helping them pave their own path from consideration through career with accessible resources, mentorship, and a supportive network.

INSPIRING THE FUTURE OF LAW

This year, over 100 middle-school students will see themselves as future lawyers, judges, and changemakers through our free Determined to Rise program. By connecting young leaders with law students and legal professionals from all backgrounds, students see that they belong–and that their dream career is within reach.

BREAKING BARRIERS TO LAW SCHOOL

Through our free Pre-Law programs, we make sure that everyone has the resources they need to get into law school. This year our admissions experts shared insights with more than 1800 aspiring lawyers.

TRANSFORMING FUTURES

To date, Ms. JD has awarded over $90,000 through the Breonna Taylor & Kenneth Walker Civil Rights Scholarship and the Public Interest Scholarship. With the support of our incredible community, we empower passionate law students to pursue often unpaid internships in public interest, opening doors to a successful legal career.

EMPOWERING TOMORROW’S LEADERS

Through our Law Student Leadership Academies, more than 500 law students have found community and guidance as they prepare to launch their legal career. With workshops on everything from developing your leadership style to maintaining mental wellness, we ensure that law students are equipped with the skills, connections, and resources they need to succeed.

ADVANCING CAREERS

Through our annual LaddHer Up retreat, more than 570 early-career lawyers have built a network of peers and mentors across the legal field. By focusing on real relationships and expert guidance, we help attorneys thrive in their careers.

CELEBRATING CHANGEMAKERS

At Ms. JD, we celebrate all efforts to make the legal field more equitable and accessible. Through our annual Limitless Awards, we honor trailblazing law students, attorneys, and organizations for their work towards systemic change.
