The Justice Gap in Canada

  • Indigenous youth make up 8% of Canada's youth population but 46% of youth correctional admissions.

  • 60% of girls in youth correctional facilities are Indigenous.

  • Black Canadians are incarcerated at a rate three times higher than their population percentage.

  • Canada's prisons have been called the "new residential schools."

  • Indigenous and Black people are overrepresented in the justice system, yet underrepresented in its administration.

Level, a national justice education and human rights charity, works to address these injustices. We collaborate with communities to advance human rights and remove barriers to equity and justice through:

  • Culturally relevant justice education for 650+ Indigenous and Black youth across Canada

  • Engagement of 2,000+ law students in social justice causes and mentorship programs

  • Professional development for lawyers to build empathy, challenge biases, and inspire systemic change
