BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Many individuals have served on the CLC Board of Directors since its beginning in 1994. A true “working board,” the members of the CLC Board of Directors volunteer at the CLC’s bi-monthly clinics, and most of the lawyer-members of the Board also handle pro bono matters referred by the CLC. Board members are expected to actively assist with fund-raising efforts and each is expected to make a personal donation.
The Board meets monthly at either MIFA’s headquarters or at the University of Memphis’ Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law. Prior to the meetings, the Board receives monthly financial statements and statistical reports from the CLC’s Executive Director, Meg Jones.
Over the years, many individuals (mostly lawyers and judges) have devoted thousands of hours of unpaid time to serve as members of the CLC’s Board of Directors, including the following members of the judiciary:
| Hon. Julia Gibbons |
Hon. James Russell |
| Hon. Holly Lillard |
Hon. Joyce Broffit |
| Hon. Robert Lanier |
Hon. Betty Thomas-Moore |
| Hon. Robert Childers |
Hon. Mark Ward |
The following have served as Chair of the Board: Mary Jo Miller, Elmore Holmes, Mike Robb, Becky Baggett, Hon. Mark Ward, Douglas Halijan, Karen Hall, and the current chair, Carla Peacher-Ryan.
