Calling All Coaches!
Pro Bono Opportunity Starts September 15
In partnership with the Dallas Bar Association, RELAUNCH 2025 is a transformative program helping attorneys return to legal practice or pivot into new career paths using their JD skill set. From September to December 2025, participants will learn from experts in face-to-face sessions, attend skill workshops, and benefit from group mentoring and one-on-one coaching—gaining clarity, confidence, and connection.
As a volunteer coach, you’ll guide 1–2 attorneys through their journey, offering presence, perspective, and practical support. The expected time commitment is approximately 13 hours, including participating in the coach orientation, conducting 3 individual coaching sessions, facilitating 5 mentoring pods, and attending the final celebration. The program also includes a series of career-building "mini-workshops" you are welcome to attend. All materials are provided—just bring your professional insight, active listening, and encouragement.
This is a powerful opportunity to make a tangible impact in the lives of professionals in transition while deepening your own coaching practice, skills and knowledge.
Sign up to volunteer here.
