On November 2, 2026, SAICBA-Q board members joined legal leaders, practitioners, and numerous co-sponsoring bar associations at the New York City Bar Association for the 4th Annual Pre-Holiday Multi-Association Potluck.
The potluck dinner featured over forty different cultural food selections brought by participating organizations. Attendees participated in an inspiring presentation delivered by Meredith Heller (NYC Bar Lawyer Assistance Program Director), Bret Parker (NYC Bar Executive Director), and Yang Chen (AABANY Executive Director), who shared invaluable insights, personal perspectives, and critical mental health resources to help legal professionals navigate challenges.
Events like this underscore the importance of prioritizing well-being, fostering open dialogue, and strengthening our collective networks across the bar. We extend our sincere thanks to AABANY, the co-sponsoring organizations, the speakers, and all who attended in support of a healthier, more connected legal community. SAICBA-Q was a proud co-sponsor for this vital evening.
