Mental health and wellness in the legal profession is a priority of the Canadian Bar Association. We’ve even created a free online course by that very name, in association with Bell Let’s Talk and the Mood Disorders Society of Canada. The course is designed to help people in the legal profession understand mental health and addiction issues and to point them in the direction of available resources.
This course and other CBA Wellness resources, are just a click away.
Make sure to also check out CBA National Magazine’s most recent publication, When Minds Matter, which looks at how some law firms are making it their business to look after the mental health of its staff and professionals.
Lastly, tune in to today’s newest episode of The Every Lawyer Podcast, where we sit down with Glen Hickerson and Doron Gold to discuss the main issues of mental health in the legal profession.
