Volunteering with WSBA
Welcome!
Volunteers are the heartbeat of the WSBA community. Every day, the Bar — and the broader legal profession — moves forward because dedicated members and members of the public generously share their time, talent, skills and lived experiences. Your diverse perspectives don't just enrich WSBA's work - they help shape the future of the organization and the profession.
Volunteering with WSBA isn't just service; it's impact. Its connection. It's the chance to meaningfully influence the legal profession in ways that ripple across Washington and beyond. We're thrilled you're here, and we can't wait for you to experience the unique and rewarding opportunities ahead.
WSBA Volunteer Application will open May 2026. While you wait...
- Complete the WSBA Volunteer Interest Form (not an application) and we'll reach out to you!
- Attend the NEW! Virtual Volunteer Fair on April 17 (RSVP requested but not required)
