The Portrait Project
**Extension to Participate has been extended to August 12!**
California Supreme Court Justice Goodwin Liu invites you to participate in a
nationwide survey as part of The Portrait Project, the first systematic study of Asian American experiences in the law. The Portrait Project research team--Justice Liu,
Yale law professor Ian Ayres, and three Yale law students--developed their questions over the course of several months, basing them in part on the themes that emerged out of their focus group discussions with NAPABA members at last year's NAPABA Annual Convention.
Their questions probe identity, career advancement, and legal education, in addition to other subjects. Their goal is to provide a comprehensive look at the past, present, and future of Asian Americans in the legal industry.
The
survey is open until August 5, 2016 at 11:59 PM PDT, and should take an estimated 25-30 minutes. The survey can be paused at any time, so there is no need to finish the questions in one sitting. All responses are anonymized. Upon completing the
survey and submitting your responses, you may choose to separately enter your name into a prize drawing for your choice of an iPad Mini 4 16GB or a Vizio 38" 5.1 Channel Soundbar System with
Wireless Subwoofer and Rear Satellite Speakers. Three winners will be selected at random. If you choose to enter the prize drawing, your name will not be associated with your responses.
We hope that you will find the time to share your experiences and contribute your voice to the report, which will be released
in time for the 2016 NAPABA Annual Convention in San Diego this November. If you are willing to participate, please fill out the survey by August 5th at this
link.
