Middle Eastern & North African Judicial Officers of California (MENA JOC) is an association of current and retired state and federal judicial officers throughout California.
Our membership is diverse and includes judicial officers who have heritage from the broadly defined MENA region, judicial officers who are related to persons with heritage from the MENA region, judicial officers who have a deep-rooted interest in and passion for any of the many cultures in the MENA region, and judicial officers who simply share in our mission.
The overarching purpose of Middle Eastern & North African (MENA) Judicial Officers of California is communication, education, and networking among our members, other members of the judiciary, bar associations, and our local communities throughout California.
Our specific goals include:
To further the administration of justice and to improve access to justice for all.
