As part of Well-Being in the Law Week, the Judiciary welcomes attorneys and all law professionals to attend a virtual program on attorney wellness on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, at 3 :00 p.m. Preregistration is required. This event flyer contains additional information and this registration link. Continuing legal education credits (1.8 credits in ethics/professionalism) will be available for attorneys who attend.
The May 2 event, entitled Supporting and Sustaining Attorney Wellness, will provide a safe forum for collaborative discourse about the challenges facing all law professionals today, including but in no way limited to heightened risks of mental health issues, substance use disorders, and self-harm. Speakers will share personal stories as well as practical strategies that can be used by those of us who could benefit from assistance and from those who are concerned about friends and colleagues.
The program will feature keynote remarks by Laurie Besden, Esq., Executive Director of Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers of Pennsylvania, as well as presentations by Anna Levine, Esq., Executive Director of the New Jersey Lawyers Assistance Program, and Natalya Johnson, Esq. , President of the Garden State Bar Association.
The Judiciary will post a recording of the program for those unable to attend the live event.
