Self Assessment

JCJPA offers quick self-assessment resources to help you better understand your mental health and substance use concerns. These tools are private, free, and can guide you toward professional help if needed.

A Simple First Step Toward Clarity

If you’ve been feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or concerned about your behavior, taking a moment to reflect is important. Self-assessment tools can help you recognize whether it may be time to seek additional support. These resources are not a diagnosis, but they can guide you toward the next step whether that’s having a conversation with a healthcare provider, calling our confidential helpline, or simply learning more about your situation. You are never obligated to use our services, and all calls to JCJPA are 100% confidential. You may even choose to remain anonymous and still receive guidance and support.

Trusted by the Legal Community

Every day, Pennsylvania judges and their family members rely on JCJPA for confidential, compassionate support.
Here’s what some of them have shared.

“JCJPA is not just for drugs and alcohol, but any life event that may interfere with a judge’s ability to work effectively. In my case, I was deeply affected when a disgruntled litigant launched a public attack of my decision in a family law case. JCJPA arranged counseling for me so I could process this criticism, regain perspective, and move forward in my career on the bench. JCJPA also connected me with a colleague from another county who had a similar experience and could give me support and advice. These resources were invaluable. I will be forever grateful for JCJPA. ”
