NCRA would like to educate members about the importance of good mental health. We have rounded up a number of resources for your use. Please check back periodically for updated resources.

You are not alone

Whatever your situation, please know that you are not alone. Your mental health is just as important as your physical health or keeping up with professional training.

 

In addition, NCRA will offer a number of free member-only webinar sessions. The sessions are underwritten by the National Court Reporters Foundation. Members must log in above to access the video recordings on this page. Note: (No CEUs will be awarded for these sessions).

We invest in ourselves professionally, so it just makes sense that we should invest the same level of commitment in protecting and preserving our mental health.

The work we do and the services we provide can be taxing physically and mentally, and while many of us rely on hitting the gym or other activities to keep us physically sound, many of us fail to consider what stress can do to us on the mental level. NCRA wants to make sure members have the resources to help them stay the course of enjoying success both professionally and personally because if we are not the best we can be mentally, we are no good to our family, friends, colleagues and clients.
