American Bankruptcy Institute’s 2025-2026 Diversity and Inclusion Mentoring Program Mentee Application Open until February 24, 2025

ABI, ABC Presented DREAMS Program at Howard University in November ABI’s Diversity and Inclusion Working Group and the American College of Bankruptcy (ABC) presented the Discovering Restructuring Expertise and Mentorship Symposium (DREAMS) on Nov. 9 at Howard University School of Law’s Pauli Murry Suite and the Moot Court Room in Washington, D.C. One set of panels was student-focused, while the remainder of the day was for practitioners and students alike. The free program included discussions on careers and diversifying the insolvency profession.

The recent tragic (but, I hope, transformative) events our country has experienced remind us that we have important work to do to address the systemic inequities that have held people of color, and others, back for far too long. We at ABI will certainly not be able to resolve these pervasive and complex issues, but we can do our own small part.
