"My name is Arshia Lala, and I am a rising senior in high school. I am very passionate about social justice and gender equity, and after doing some research, I realized that there was a gender gap in the legal field. As a result, I started Girls in Democracy, an organization designed to provide opportunities for young women to get involved with their communities and understand how the legal field really works. Through this project, I hope to remind young women and girls that their voice and involvement in law is crucial for a better future :)
