About Justice Avenues
Our program launched in June 2023. We work to make legal advice and information about family, immigration, and criminal law more accessible to racialized people on Prince Edward Island.
We provide free resources, support, and a safe environment for racialized people to learn about their legal rights and options. We also offer free lawyer referrals and legal clinics.
We are a project of Community Legal Information and funded by Justice Canada.
