      Profession Committee with the mission of increasing opportunities for minority, women, and LGBT
      attorneys who provide legal services to corporate and governmental clients, and to expose organizations
      to the legal talent of diverse attorneys in Texas. Since its inception, the TMCP has been instrumental in
      enhancing opportunities for diverse attorneys.
