Member Assistance Program (MAP) 

Mental health is a fundamental aspect of one’s overall well-being. As a member of the Law Society you are eligible to free, confidential support through the Member Assistance Program. This is funded by Saskatchewan Lawyers’ Insurance Association (SLIA) and the Law Society of Saskatchewan. The program is available to members of the Law Society and their eligible dependents, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is provided by Manitoba Blue Cross to ensure confidentiality. No one outside of Manitoba Blue Cross knows the identity of the individuals using the Program and only anonymous, aggregate usage rates are shared with SLIA and the Law Society.  

The Member Assistance Program supports members’ health and well-being through prevention, early intervention and treatment options and offers in-person service providers in Saskatchewan (current locations: Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, Shellbrook, and Humbolt), online, telephone and email counselling services to meet your unique needs. The program is available for any concern—minor or major—to ensure members receive the level and type of support needed, whether self-directed through digital resources in the online learning centre or counselling from trained professionals.  

Members of the Law Society must enroll with Manitoba Blue Cross to access the Member Assistance Program by completing the registration form and returning it to Manitoba Blue Cross via fax 1-204-772-1231 or email to MBCgroupbenefits@mb.bluecross.ca. You are encouraged to register yourself and your dependents now to ensure timely access to these benefits should you need them. 

Key features of the new program include the following: 

• 12 counselling sessions annually in a wide variety of areas impacting mental wellbeing including: 
  • addictions issues; 
  • family dynamics; 
  • financial counselling; 
  • marriage and relationship counselling;

  • stress management 
• Service providers offering in-person counselling in a variety of locations throughout Saskatchewan;
