Well-Being Pledge Campaign
The ABA Well-Being Campaign was launched to improve the substance use and mental health landscape of the legal profession, with an emphasis on helping legal employers support healthy work environment. The primary vehicle for the Campaign is a Pledge calling upon legal employers (including law firms, corporate entities, government agencies and legal aid organizations) to first: (a) recognize that substance use and mental health problems represent a significant challenge for the legal profession and acknowledge that more can and should be done to improve the health and well-being of lawyers; and, (b) pledge to support the Campaign and work to adopt and prioritize its seven-point framework for building a better future.
During the second stage of the Campaign, a Commitment Form will be circulated annually – asking participants to describe any steps taken toward the objectives set out in the framework during the previous year and recommit to the Pledge.
Contact Theresa Gronkiewicz at Theresa.Gronkiewicz@americanbar.org with any questions or to pledge your support.
For a more detailed description of the Campaign as well as a quote from ABA Past-President Bob Carlson in support of the initiative, see the official ABA Press Release.
