What's Next? Fallout from the Report on Lawyer Well-Being
The National Task Force Report on Lawyer Well-Being released last fall is groundbreaking. It calls out the legal profession on unusually high rates of mental health concerns and substance use disorders and gives notice that the status quo is unsustainable. Focusing on pragmatic strategies, the 73-page Report makes over 70 practical recommendations for change. This webinar summarizes key take aways from the Report and discusses the implications for our profession. Case studies and examples of successful well-being initiatives are provided to help members identify the best next step for their organization.
