The Kansas Lawyers Assistance Program is guided by a dedicated Advisory Board representing attorneys, judges and members of the Kansas legal community from across the state. The Board provides oversight, strategic direction and support to help advance KALAP’s mission of promoting lawyer well-being through confidential assistance, education and outreach.
Board members meet regularly throughout the year to help ensure KALAP continues to serve the evolving needs of Kansas lawyers, judges, law students and bar applicants with compassion, integrity and professionalism.
