The New Jersey Lawyers Assistance Program
Is Here for Your Well-Being - Weekly Email #2
NJLAP is reaching out to New Jersey attorneys to let you know that we are here for you during this COVID19 emergency. Although our offices are closed, staff is working from home, and you can reach us at 800-246-5527. We also are posting updated information on this special page, and on our Facebook page, which is linked at the bottom portion of our homepage. In addition, we will sending out weekly emails, like this one, to provide supportive and helpful information.
This week we are sharing some multimedia ways to enhance your well-being. The first is a webinar that NJLAP is presenting with the assistance of the NJBSA, the second is a podcast from Legal Speak about lawyers working remotely. We have also created a List of Resource Links, for helpful information on Recovery and Mental health, in a categorized list.
If you are reading this online or a friend has shared with you, you can subscribe to our Balance e-newsletter to get future editions directly. After this emergency is over, Balance will return to a quarterly schedule.
NJLAP Presents "Coping With COVID with Resilience" with Anita McLean, Ph.D., Psy.D.
We are all adjusting to a new reality with a real threat at our doorstep. While we are all facing the same fears, we will respond in different ways. The more resilient we can be in this moment, the more we can protect the mental and physical health of ourselves and our families. This webinar is an opportunity to share our collective wisdom for getting through this together as well as possible, and positioning ourselves for the recover that will come.
