Skolnik, Esq.; WBASNY Director for SIWBA, Manju Sunny, Esq.; Corresponding Secretary, Dawn Reid-Green, Esq.; and Second Vice President, Eve Lynn Newman, Esq. For the membership year, the SIWBA sponsored a number of events in Staten Island as well as participated as co-sponsors for events scheduled throughout New York City, thus reinforcing our motto linking women attorneys throughout Staten Island and beyond. Below is a brief summary of these activities: 1
2 On September 29, 2012, the SIWBA sponsored a networking and membership barbecue and fundraiser for Seaman s Society for Families and children. The event was held at the residence of President Edwina Frances Martin.

McMahon, Administrative Judge of Richmond County; a presentation on recent breast cancer research developments was also delivered by Jeannine Marotta of the American Cancer Society. 2
3 On September 19 th, 2012, SIWBA co-sponsored a training for its pro bono project, CLARO: The Staten Island Civil Legal Advice and Resources Office. This is a project that SIWBA co-sponsors with the Richmond County Bar Association, Wagner College, and The Feerick Center for Social Justice at Fordham University School of Law. CLARO is a limited, legal advice program that assists unrepresented debtor-defendants in debt collection cases filed in New York City Civil Court. The SIWBA held its Annual Holiday Reception honoring Members of the Richmond County Judiciary on Tuesday, December 4, 2012, the in The Tea House Garden of the Hilton Garden Inn, Staten Island, NY. Over 200 Richmond County attorneys, and friends and supporters of the SIWBA gathered to honor members of the Richmond County Judiciary and the evening's special honoree, the Honorable Judith N. McMahon, Administrative Judge of Richmond County. At the event, Judge McMahon announced in her acceptance speech that Richmond County would create a special part for Superstorm Sandy related cases should the number of cases warrant it. Also, the SIWBA donated $1,000 from the net proceeds of the event to the Superstorm Sandy Relief Fund created by Project Hospitality and the Staten Island Advance. The Holiday Reception Committee was co-chaired by Anna E Vira, SIWBA First Vice President, and Brooke Tiffany Skolnik, SIWBA Recording Secretary.

5 On February 11 th, 2013, the SIWBA hosted a lively program at the Staten Island Museum (Stuyvesant Street) on "The Impact of Bankruptcy on Your Practice" with experienced practitioners Kevin Zazerra and Gregory Flood; the program was moderated by Judge Philip Straniere. The evening began with a presentation from Sharon Bean of the American Heart Association on Women and Heart Disease for the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women month to bring awareness on the dangers of heart disease and strokes for women. On February 23, 2013, the SIWBA, in association with the American Association of the University of Women (AAUW) of Staten Island, sponsored a free event entitled View from the Bench - A Conversation with the Administrative Judge of Richmond County. The event was a discussion with the Honorable Judith N. McMahon, Administrative Judge of Richmond County. On April 14, 2013, the SIWBA was a co-sponsor, with host Peace Action Staten Island, of a showing of the film Miss Representation; several other Island organizations co-sponsored the showing as well. This documentary exposes how mainstream media contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America. It challenges the media s limited and often disparaging portrayals of women and girls, which make it difficult for women to achieve leadership positions and for the average women to feel powerful herself. The film, which was shown at the JCC of Staten Island, was followed by a panel discussion to engage the audience in responding to what they had seen. 5
6 On April 22, 2013, the SIWBA conducted its Annual Meeting and Gender Fairness Program at New Dorp High School. Students from throughout Staten Island high schools attended the standing-room event. The panel included the following: Judge Barbara Irolla Panepinto (Acting Justice, Supreme Court, Richmond County), Andrew Sta. Ana, Supervising Attorney of Day One (the only organization in New York City solely devoted to the issue of teen dating violence), Assistant District Attorney Victoria Levin of the Office of the Richmond County District Attorney, Special Victims Bureau, SIWBA President Edwina Frances Martin, Sharlena Powell and Nedene Simon of Voices of Women Organizing Project (VOW)(which gives a voice to survivors of domestic violence by organizing survivors to influence, change and improve the many systems battered women and their children turn to for safety and justice), and Judge Karen B. Wolff (Family Court of the City of New York, Richmond County). 6
7 Immediately following the April 22 nd Gender Fairness event, the SIWBA held its Annual Meeting and Election of Officers and Directors. A nominating committee chaired by Yolanda Rudich, Esq., past president of the SIWBA, and including past presidents Patricia Anne Taylor and Catherine M. Paulo, presented the new slate for the SIWBA Board of Directors.

Skolnik, Esq.; SIWBA Second Vice President, Marguerite Fiore, Esq.; SIWBA Recording Secretary, Ann Thompson, Esq.; SIWBA Corresponding Secretary, Eve Lynn Newman, Esq.; SIWBA Treasurer, Rian Silverman, Esq.; and WBASNY Director for SIWBA, Rosemary Palladino.

On Monday, May 20 th, the SIWBA presented its final CLE program of the program year, an Ethics program presented by newly-elected WBASNY Director Rosemary Palladino, Ethics, The Rules Of Professional Conduct, And The Disciplinary Process.
