Well-Being CLE Webinar | Getting By With A Little Help

The American Bar Association and Hazelden Foundation conducted a nationwide study confirming that lawyers struggle with depression, anxiety and alcoholism at rates that far exceed rates found in the general population and other professions. We all know the risks. We often see colleagues in trouble but are unsure exactly what to do about it. 

This session presented by Candace Hoffman and Cathy Killian with the North Carolina Lawyers Assistance Program and hosted by Parker Poe will highlight real-world strategies that lawyers and law firms can use to: 

·    Identify colleagues at risk

·    Create a culture of safety that will reduce barriers for those in need to asking for and receiving help

·    Intervene when it is clear a colleague needs assistance.

This program has been submitted but has not yet been approved for one hour of CLE credit in GA, NC, and SC. A certificate of attendance will be provided for attorneys licensed in other states upon request to submit to their own state bar association.
