Law Students
For Students in Recovery: A Listserv has been developed
by the ABA Commission on
Lawyer Assistance Programs (CoLAP) to provide a confidential email vehicle
for law
students who want to get, or stay, clean and sober while in law school.
This is a chance for
students to connect with and ask questions of their law student peers throughout
the US
and share their experience, strength and hope. To be added, interested
law students
should contact Ann Foster of the Texas Lawyers' Assistance Program
via email at afoster@texasbar.com
or 800-343-8527; or email CoLAP's Director, Donna Spilis, directly
at spilisd@staff.abanet.org.
Students should be prepared to talk a bit about their history
and about their need and desire to communicate with other law students
facing the similiar
challenges. Ms. Spilis will make the final determination to add the
student to the Listserv
and will provide each student with the rules and regulations regarding use
of the "Students
in Recovery Listserv." When a student graduates and is admitted to
the bar, he/she will be
removed from the Listserv.
