Edmonton Community Legal Centre

The Edmonton Community Legal Centre (ECLC) will provide family law legal advice appointments to low income Northern Albertans, with assistance from Edmonton pro bono family law lawyers and various technologies (Skype, Facetime, WhatsApp, etc) such that people are served in their own communities. Outcome evaluation will also be conducted to determine the effectiveness of each type of technology as well as client outcome and levels of satisfaction. This grant will benefit Northern Albertans and concludes in 2022. This grant furthers access to justice by providing access to family law services to those living in Northern Alberta, which is largely an underserved region.
