We believe that elevating empathy, increasing inter-cultural awareness and embracing humility in the justice sector can help combat discrimination and create a justice system that serves the people who need it the most. This starts with legal professionals who strive to learn new ways to connect and better serve a broad array of clients.

Join us on April 9^th, 2019 from 1:00 – 4:30 p.m. as we host the following speakers.

Level is excited to announce two funding partners who have joined our mission to disrupt prejudice, build empathy and advance human rights! The Peter Gilgan Foundation and the Manitoba Law Foundation have committed their support to help us empower law students, lawyers and Indigenous youth to change the face of the justice system:

Over the course of the past 15 years, Level has worked closely with law students across Canada to engage with their communities and ignite change. We strongly believe that law students continue to play an integral part in advancing a culture of social consciousness.  Our student chapters are comprised of dedicated young leaders who continue to advance our important work on human rights, advocacy, and legal research on campuses across Canada, and remind us daily of the importance of community empowerment. Check out what some of our incredible Level Student Chapters have been up to this academic year, as well as some of the exciting events on the horizon!

The holidays are the best time for reading. Whether you’re buying for yourself or a loved one, there’s no better time to cozy up indoors with a book! From poetry to biography, here are a few of our favourites to hold you over until the new year.

We recently announced the launch of our Blazing Trails Mentorship Program for the 2018-19 year, and we couldn’t be more excited about what’s to come! Over the next few months, we’ll be showcasing some of the highlights of this program. This year, 15 legal experts have offered to share their time and wisdom mentoring 47 motivated law students. We’d like to introduce you to a few of our 2018-19 Mentors, and invite you to stay tuned for more updates on this exciting program.

Level is exited to announce that it is a recipient of a Law Foundation of Ontario (LFO) grant in the amount of $71,250 through the LFO's three year Catalyst Grant Program. The funds will be used to further empower Indigenous youth across Ontario through Level's Indigenous Youth Outreach Program (IYOP).

Level is thrilled to announce the release of the Indigenous Youth Justice Toolkit, a resource created for Indigenous youth, led by Indigenous youth! The Indigenous Youth Justice Toolkit is a resource for Indigenous youth to navigate the justice system that incorporates traditional teachings and youth artwork.
