Community Legal Clinics

ISAC works in close partnership with community legal clinics across Ontario.

Local community-based clinics have specific catchment areas and provide legal services to Ontarians with low incomes. Specialty clinics, like ISAC, work in a number of areas or law and/or for various constituent groups.

For public legal information:

  • Your Legal Rights is a website of legal information for people in Ontario. This site has free, practical, and easy-to-find legal information produced by hundreds of organizations across Ontario.
  • Community Legal Education Ontario (CLEO) is a specialty legal clinic that provides a number of resources and publications in various topic areas. CLEO operates Your Legal Rights and runs other projects, including other online legal information sites.
