Danielle (Blomarz) Kays ’01 of the law firm Seyfarth Shaw was among many of the organizers of a summit on employment law. Kays who often represents employers, said the worldwide #MeToo movement “has made these claims public and it’s important to talk about these issues.” This movement and similar issues were topics that the McLean County Bar Association, Chamber of Commerce and the Bloomington-Normal Human Resource Council explored at a summit on Tuesday, April 17th, along with other employment law issues.

The conference was the first effort of its kind to bring together attorneys, business owners and human resource professionals to examine this evolving area of the law.

Thank you for all you do, Danielle!
