Jennifer Bluestein was quoted in The Chicago Tribune article, "Confronting 2020’s Workplace Challenges Takes Creativity, Compassion, Courage," regarding the firm's response to civil unrest.

Chicago law firm Perkins Coie also received an outpouring of concern about civil unrest. The company conducted a workshop for Black employees to talk about the trauma of racial violence and what it’s like to be Black in America.

“We had four small group sessions and then offered them for one-on-one if employees wanted to set them up on their own,” said Jennifer. “We’ve also rolled out additional self-service tools like Headspace, an app for meditation and wellness. In the first two weeks, 20% of our personnel downloaded it.”
