Well-Being
Our Commitment to Well-Being
At Bond, we prioritize the mental health and well-being of our attorneys and staff through a variety of initiatives designed to promote a supportive and healthy work environment. Our Well-Being Committee, established in 2020, is a dedicated group of attorneys and staff members who work together to address mental health challenges and foster a culture of wellness. This committee plays a crucial role in identifying factors that impact mental health and partnering with firm leaders to implement effective programs.
Since 2024, Bond has proudly been a member of the ABA Well-Being Pledge, demonstrating our commitment to improving the mental health of our legal professionals. We are also proud to have multiple individuals at our firm who have participated in Mental Health First Aid training provided by the National Council for Mental WellBeing. This training equips our team with the skills to support colleagues in need and promote a culture of understanding and support.
At Bond, we believe that inclusion and belonging are essential to well-being. We encourage everyone to bring their whole selves to work, as we know that feeling valued and included is crucial for mental health. By fostering an inclusive environment, we ensure that all team members feel supported and respected, which enhances overall well-being.
In addition to these efforts, Bond has actively participated in Well-Being Week in Law for more than five years. This annual event allows us to engage in various activities and programs that highlight the importance of mental health in the legal profession. Our participation underscores our dedication to creating a balanced and healthy work environment for all.
The mission of the Bond Well-Being Committee is to identify factors that impact attorney and staff wellness, partner with firm leaders, conduct programs to promote the mental health and wellness of Bond attorneys and staff, and provide educational opportunities surrounding wellness issues and resources. Through these initiatives, we strive to create a workplace where everyone can thrive both personally and professionally.
