UABA sets up toll-free number

CHATHAM, N.J. - In an effort to make itself more accessible to the community at large, the Ukrainian American Bar Association has instituted a toll-free number available to anyone calling from the United States and Canada.

The toll-free number, 1-888-UABA-LAW or 1-888-822-2529, provides pre-recorded information about the association in the English and Ukrainian languages, and permits the caller to leave messages for UABA officers and governors.

Donna Pochoday, UABA vice-president, said that in the past the association's telephone number and mailing address had changed every two years with the election of a new president. She explained that the toll-free number will establish continuity and provide a central location for communication with prospective members, the association's 150 dues-paying members, and the community at large.

The toll-free number's pre-recorded message announces information about UABA membership and dues, referrals of UABA attorneys by state, upcoming UABA events and activities, and addresses, telephone and fax numbers of UABA officers and governors.

The association, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, is also working on creating a UABA Web site on the Internet.
