Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I am both inspired and humbled to begin our year as the Dallas Hispanic Bar Association President.  This year we celebrate DHBA's 50th Anniversary.  I am very mindful of the legacy of this organization and all the great work done by those who have served in the past.  I want to thank all of you who have supported our work in various capacities and invite you to become even more engaged as we embark on a genuinely ambitious set of priorities this year.  

Our new Board of Directors is made up of exceptionally talented advocates with a demonstrated commitment to public service.  I can assure you that we will be doing all we can to make an impact in our profession and community.  We would like to welcome:

• President Javier Perez
• President-Elect Isaac Faz
• Vice-President Elsa Manzanares
• Treasurer Claudia M. Guerrero-Nava
• Secretary Tricia Freshwater
• Director Hon. Jaime Resendez 
• Director Carla Green
• Director Joe Carreon

I invite you to join us at our upcoming events and to get involved with one of our fantastic committees.  I look forward to working with each of you this year as we continue the important work before us.

Saludos,

Javier Perez
DHBA President
