Board Members

ISAC is governed by a volunteer 15-person community-based Board of Directors.

According to ISAC’s bylaws, five Board members represent legal clinic staff in each of the four regions of Ontario, with one “at-large” representative. The remaining ten come from the broader community. Of those, at least five must be people with past or present lived experience of poverty and/or past or present lived experience of disability and at least five must reside outside of the GTA.

Board members represent a diverse range of groups, with representation from Indigenous and Francophone communities, racialized communities / communities of colour, persons with disabilities, and recipients of income security programs.

Board members serve three-year terms.

Our current Board of Directors:

Executive: 

Jenny Gullen – Ottawa (Chair)
John Mills – Hamilton (Vice-Chair)
Julia McNally – Toronto (Treasurer)
Margarita Mendez – Woodbridge (Secretary)

Clinic Representatives:

Rachael Lake – Waterloo (Western region clinic representative)
Therese Menard – Timmins (Northern region clinic representative)
Dominique Conway – Ottawa (Eastern region clinic representative)
Christie McQuarrie – Toronto (Central region/GTA clinic representative)
Claudette Audette – Sudbury (Clinic at-large representative)

Community Members:

Jessica Mayer – Timmins
