EBA YLC and FERC’s Queer Employee Resource Committee invite you to come out and meet energy professionals in the area!  Please feel free to invite your colleagues to join.

EBA’s Young Lawyers Council (YLC) provides attorneys who have been practicing 8 years or less an opportunity to connect with likeminded young professionals and seasoned practitioners. Through this council, new energy law practitioners will develop lasting relationships. Council leaders are committed to providing formal and informal networking and educational opportunities for new lawyers.

FERC’s Queer Employee Resource Committee (QERC) promotes understanding of issues regarding sexual orientation and gender identity and expression (to include gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgendered persons) within FERC. The employee resource group aims to achieve this by providing information, views, and services that will contribute to improved agency operations, personnel management, and employee effectiveness. QERC also aims to provide a forum for FERC employees to advocate policies and practices that encourage diversity, improve the workplace environment, and eliminate discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity and expression.
