Picture

Please know that the program will begin directly following the 2nd round of the Mock Trials. That time will be at 12.30 pm. 
Please go to the basement of the Law & Justice Center to pick up your lunch and find a seat as soon as you finish your round. 

Recognizing, Understanding, and Referring a Colleague in Need (60 minutes)
Recent studies have confirmed that overwhelming stressors that are commonplace in our legal profession disproportionately results in attorneys suffering higher levels of depression, anxiety, substance use, burnout, cognitive problems, and other serious issues at rates much higher than those seen in the general population. Participants in this program will learn:
• Why attorneys are a vulnerable population;
• The common mental health and substance use issues faced by our colleagues;
• The signs and symptoms of those issues; and
• What to do when you identify a colleague in need.
