Elimination of Bias - Disabilities Related to Mental Health and Addiction

Lawyers have to deal with substance abuse on a regular basis. It may be the alcohol-fueled incident that lands a client in a lawyer's office. It may be the substance abuse of a partner or associate, or the lawyer herself. Substance abuse is a constant issue in the legal profession. Lawyers can work to detect, treat and prevent substance abuse. This program will help lawyers:

* Identify the classic warning signs of substance abuse
* Help others get the help they need
* Avoid much of the stress from which the problem often starts
