Prosecutor Wellbeing

Prosecutors dedicate their lives to seeking justice, protecting victims, and keeping communities safe. Yet, the nature of this work often means long hours, high caseloads, and repeated exposure to trauma. Over time, these pressures can lead to stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and other wellbeing challenges that impact both personal health and professional performance.

At NDAA, we believe that caring for prosecutors is just as important as the work they do in courtrooms and communities. Supporting wellbeing ensures not only healthier, more resilient professionals, but also stronger, more effective justice for all.
