Mental Health in the Legal Profession: Immigration Law
January 25, 2024 | 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM Eastern
Zoom Meeting
The third fireside discussion in the CBA Immigration Brunch/Lunch Series is an opportunity for immigration lawyers across Canada to continue the conversation on mental health in the legal profession. Reports of imposter syndrome, burnout, vicarious trauma, anxiety, depression, alcohol, and drug abuse are prevalent in our profession. We invite you to join this discussion for a meaningful dialogue on the topic of mental health. Hearing from lawyers and mental health experts, you’ll not only hear personal stories, but also best practices for advancing your personal mental health and practical strategies to manage your mental health and support the wellness of your staff.
