Conference Overview

NYSBA's Partnership Conference is the premier civil legal services educational and networking conference in New York State.  The Partnership Conference is attended by leaders of civil legal service organizations and private law firms from across New York State.  

Individuals and groups from all corners of the state travel to Albany, NY every other year to attend the conference, earn continuing legal education credits, and attend the Denison Ray Civil Awards dinner to honor attorneys', directors', and nonprofits' extraordinary leadership and commitment to access to justice.  This year's Partnership Conference has a projected attendance of over 500 people.

The theme for the 2020 Partnership Conference is Uniting for Justice and will be held from October 2, 2020 through October 4, 2020 at the Albany Capital Center.  The conference will provide over thirty workshops, covering a diverse range of subjects, including program innovation and management, technology and substantive legal topics (immigration, foreclosure, domestic violence, government benefits, and housing, among others).

The New York State Bar Association's Committee on Legal Aid is pleased to call for nominations for the 2020 Denison Ray Civil Awards and the Phil Dailey Award.  These awards will be presented at the Denison Ray Awards Dinner on October 3, 2020.  Please see nomination form for more details.
