“One of The Law Foundation of Ontario’s strategic priorities is to collaborate and build knowledge to strengthen the access to justice sector. ACLCO and the community legal clinic system are anchors of this sector,” says Lisa Cirillo, the Foundation’s CEO. “We are pleased to be in a position to support the clinics’ ability to most effectively govern and manage their operations and to deliver the highest quality legal services, especially for some of the most marginalized communities across Ontario.”
