About the Member Assistance Program

The Bar Association of Erie County and the Erie County Bar Foundation are pleased to add a Member Assistance Program (“MAP”) to the practical resources available to our lawyers navigating the challenging business of practicing law.

The hallmark of this program is immediate confidential access to mental health counseling. The MAP will complement and broaden the groundbreaking wellbeing work of the Foundation and the BAEC’s Lawyers Helping Lawyers Program and Depression Support Group.

All of these programs are designed to keep lawyers at their professional best and destigmatize pursuing help for mental health. The MAP is operated in partnership with Child & Family Services Employee Assistance Program (EAP).

The MAP is easy to access and free for BAEC members and those in their household. Confidential counseling can be sought for job stress, changes or loss, family matters, bereavement, relationship conflicts, substance use disorder, anxiety,  depression or any other matter that affects mental health.
