Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Resources

The SJC Standing Committee on Lawyer Well-Being prioritizes supporting lawyers from underrepresented backgrounds and working to mitigate the issues that affect their ability to thrive in the profession. As a result, the Committee is dedicated to improving diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the legal profession, which is crucial to our individual and collective well-being. Read our DEI Statement, here. Learn more about our DEI efforts, including A Report Summarizing Affinity Bar Town Hall Meetings, here.

Our work identifies the importance and necessity of DEI-related resources for members of the MA legal profession. You can find a listing of local, state, and national DEI resources below. This list is meant to be a “living document” with regular additions and revisions. If you would like to suggest additional resources, please feel free to email Committee Director Heidi Alexander at heidi@lawyerwellbeingma.org. Please note that, as a public body, the SJC Standing Committee cannot list specific private, for-profit resources or individual consultants.
