In May 2019, ALM editors-in-chief Gina Passarella and Leigh Jones introduced “Minds Over Matters: A Yearlong Examination of Mental Health in the Legal Profession.”

“Historically, lawyers and others in the profession have not openly discussed mental health challenges, and resources for those impacted have not been readily available,” they wrote. ”Institutions have been left without ideas on how to improve their work environment—or worse, without the motivation to do so. We want to change that.”
