Belleville attorney Roza B. Gossage will receive the 2007 Board of Governors Award from the Illinois State Bar Association (ISBA) on June 22 at the organization's annual meeting at The Abbey in Fontana, Wisc.

She is a dedicated member of the Family Law and Elder Law Section Councils and the ISBA's Committee on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and has developed a reputation for presenting excellent CLE programs, her seven nominators wrote.
