Maryland LAP Roundup
The Maryland Lawyer Assistance Program (LAP) is a committee of the Maryland State Bar Association, and provides confidential, professional assistance to the legal community.
LAP offers a weekly “12 Step Professional’s Support Group Meeting” in Baltimore. The program website includes extensive links and articles on topics such as grief, anger, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, illness, substance abuse (including anabolic steroid use), and work-life balance.
Since 1981, LAP has helped more than 2,000 Maryland legal professionals through services including peer support networks, referrals, interventions, and structured rehabilitation programs. LAP encourages those concerned about a colleague to get in touch the program.
Contact information for Jim Quinn, Program Director and other committee members is available at the Maine LAP website.
