	is the theme for this year's conference. We are the only national organization that provides a forum for distinguished Vietnamese American judges, elected officials and attorneys to celebrate our accomplishments in the U.S. and abroad, promote the high standards of professionalism in law and politics, and discuss legal and community issues affecting Vietnamese Americans. It is through this exchange of dialogue that we will be able to build new bridges - bridges between cultures, between generations and between courtrooms. We are honored and excited to announce that this year's Trailblazer Award Recipient is Judge Jacqueline Duong (Santa Clara County Superior Court). Please click here to view Judge Duong's biography.
