More Info

Every year since 2011, the Alberta Lawyers’ Assistance Society has gathered lawyers from across Alberta to walk together in support of good mental health and well-being in our communities. Meet colleagues who care about well-being and engage in a healthy, outdoor activity while counteracting the stigma about mental health and addiction.

2026 walks will be held in the following locations:

Calgary: Saturday, Sept. 19 at 9:45 a.m., Under Wood Pavilion at East End of St. Patrick’s Island Park – See the Calgary event poster for full details.

Edmonton: Saturday, Sept. 19 at 9:45 a.m., Hawrelak Park (Picnic site #4) – See the Edmonton event poster for full details.

Join these walks to reconnect with colleagues and raise awareness of lawyer well-being. Everyone in the legal community is welcome — lawyers (including those seeking accreditation, non-practising and practising), staff, articling students and law students. There is no cost associated with these events.

Please contact operations@lawyerassist.ca to RSVP.
