    Life is hard – everyone needs help now and then

    Jan. 4, 2012 – In this video, Wisconsin Lawyers Assistance Program (WisLAP) volunteers discuss how the program helps legal professionals and their families who are struggling with problems related to the stress and challenges of the legal profession.

    WisLAP is based upon the premise of lawyers helping lawyers and judges helping judges. Alcoholism, substance abuse, addictive behavior, and psychological problems are treatable conditions rather than moral issues. The only stigma attached to these conditions is an individual’s failure to seek help.

    Lawyers are natural leaders and there is a hesitancy to ask for help. “Once you make the phone call, you will feel so much better,” says one volunteer. “WisLAP can be the solution that provides temporary relief for a very big pain.”
