About Connecting Communities

Our team

The Connecting Communities staff team:

  • identifies and supports the development of creative training projects that bring together legal and community organizations and enhance frontline workers’ ability to provide legal information and referrals
  • guides project proposals through the Law Foundation of Ontario application process (Connecting projects are funded by the Law Foundation of Ontario)
  • shares training materials and resources that are developed through Connecting projects on the Connecting Communities web pages so that they can be accessed by others in the community who are interested in doing similar work.
