Government Helps Low-Income Citizens Access Justice Services

Released on January 30, 2014

The province is providing financial support that will assist low-income individuals in accessing justice services in Saskatoon.

As part of a funding agreement between the Government of Saskatchewan and the Community Legal Assistance Services for Saskatoon Inner City Inc. (CLASSIC), the Ministry of Justice will provide a total of $300,000 between 2013-2016.  Justice Minister and Attorney General Gordon Wyant presented CLASSIC with a cheque for $90,000 today in Saskatoon. 

“The purpose of this funding agreement is two-fold,” Wyant said.  “It will support legal assistance for those who need it most and give Saskatchewan’s next generation of lawyers the opportunity to learn hands-on about the legal community’s responsibilities to equal access to justice.”

The agreement provides funding for CLASSIC’s Legal Advice Clinic, which provides direct legal assistance to low-income individuals in inner city Saskatoon.  It will also be used to support the Walk-in Advocacy Clinic, which pairs College of Law students with practicing lawyers to provide advice, assistance, and representation to clients.  

The Ministry of Justice has provided CLASSIC with financial support since the organization began operating in 2007.
