The New Jersey Lawyers Assistance Program is here for New Jersey Law Students, and this link below from the Mindfulness In Law Society, who created a toolkit specifically for Law Students. It is particularly appropriate during this week. Mental Illness Awareness Week in the United States takes place from October 4 to October 10, 2026 (the first full week of October), established by the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to fight stigma and educate the public.

New Jersey Law Students are welcome to call NJLAP any time of the year at 800-246-5527. We are frequently on your campus and giving out great swag.
