Part 1 of the 2023 Emory Public Interest Committee Conference
Mental health is an integral and universal aspect of well-being, affecting individuals of all walks of life. “Balancing the Scales: Mental Health Awareness in the Law” will explore how lawyers can take a holistic approach to legal advocacy that addresses the mental health needs of both lawyers and clients alike. This conference will include presentations on how lawyers can be mindful of mental health and trauma-informed in their practice to better serve their clients. Then, recognizing the unique challenges lawyers face in an inherently stressful field, our conference will address the impact of secondary trauma and emphasize the importance of attorney wellness.
