Young Lawyers Section for Literacy

The Broward County Bar Association Young Lawyers Section reached a milestone this February. Now in its 11th year, the Young Lawyers for Literacy Program read to over 12 classes of Kindergarten and 1st grade students at Stephen Foster Elementary School. Over 200 students had lawyers and judges read the book “Who Stole the Cookies from the Cookie Jar” by Bonnie Lass and Philemon Sturges.

It was the largest group of students ever assembled that lawyers read the story to, and had the chance to interact with. Judge Robert Diaz and Attorney Kyle Roberts can be seen in the photo reading the story to the students. Attorney Roberts has led the group for the past four years. The program will continue through the end of the school year.
