The Chaw Legacy Fund To Advance The Institute’s Future
The Chaw Legacy Fund is inspired the vision, integrity, and excellence of Teri Chaw, who retired as NELA and The Institute’s Executive Director in July 2017 after 27 years of incomparable service. We are proud to recognize Teri for the meaningful role she played in advancing the field of plaintiffs’ employment law. NELA and The Institute extend our heartfelt gratitude to the generous and dedicated supporters of this special fundraising initiative who are building Teri’s legacy while propelling the movement for workers’ rights into the future.
