Modeling Possibilities program credited with encouraging Muslim women to pursue law

A speaker at the event described Modeling Possibilities as a two‑year effort to connect minority and Muslim women with people working in the legal field, saying the program helped participants see law as an attainable career. The speaker said Judge Jarmon’s visibility and involvement with the program reinforced that possibility and encouraged them to apply to law school.

"I've hosted Modeling Possibilities with her for two years," the speaker said, describing the program's purpose as connecting minorities and Muslim women to people in the legal field. The testimony tied the program to wider outreach efforts and to the formation of the Ummah Bar Association, both cited as ways to increase visibility for Muslim women in law.
