the Puerto Rican Bar
Association, Inc., and the Puerto Rican Bar Association Scholarship
Fund, Inc.
The Puerto Rican
Bar Association, Inc. (PRBA) was founded in 1957 by a group of Puerto
Rican and Latino attorneys who began gathering socially to offer
one another both personal and professional support in an era when
it was difficult for attorneys of color to be accepted as members
in established bar associations. The PRBA at that time focused its
efforts on addressing the concerns of a rapidly growing Latino community
and the legal services it required. Today, the PRBA has grown from
a handful of attorney to over 500 members representing the interests
of attorneys, judges, law professors and students of Latino descent
who share a common interest in fostering professional development
in the legal community and addressing issues that are important
to other Latino communities as a whole.
The Puerto Rican
Bar Association is having their scholarship banquet on October 19,
2007 from 6 p.m to 11 p.m at the Union League Club at 65 W. Jackson.
For more information contact Edwin Reyes at 773-450-9584.

It is the vision of the Puerto Rican Parade Committee to create,
through its various activities, a sense of pride, historical understanding
and greater self-esteem among all citizens of Puerto Rican origin
living in the city of Chicago, or the state of Illinois. We also
wish to share with the general public the beauty of our culture
and thus, create among the general population a better understanding
and respect for all cultures present in the setting that surrounds
us.
