Chicago, Illinois June 11, 2013 - The National Black Prosecutors Association (NBPA) has chosen Orlando, Florida, the “Magic City”, to host its 2013 30th Anniversary Conference and Job Fair. The NBPA is committed to the recruitment, training, and career advancement of minority attorneys as prosecutors at all levels of government. “It is to ensure not only retention of Blacks in prosecution, but also to correct the dramatic inequity that exists with respect to black representation in the executive ranks of prosecutor`s offices. A further goal is to recruit, train, and mentor younger aspiring lawyers for leadership roles in the years ahead”, says Carmen M. Lineberger, National Black Prosecutors Association Immediate President.

The Historic 30th Annual Conference will be held at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort in Orlando, Florida. Rosen Shingle Creek is a AAA Four Diamond Resort that has 18 hole, 72 Par Golf Course, full service spa, nature/jogging trail, marina, fishing, and multiple cuisine restaurants.

Please do not forget to mention the group rate for National Black Prosecutors Association Conference for the special room rate. These room rates are effective Saturday, July 13, 2013-Sunday, July 21, 2013.

The NBPA Job Fair, which will be held on July 16, 2013 provides a unique venue for highly qualified candidates, law students, recent law school graduates and experienced attorneys from across the nation, to meet and interview for prospective employment in prosecutors’ offices at the local, state, and federal levels.
