Pro Bono Students Canada (PBSC) is the first pro bono organization in the country and a nationally respected program that is actively supported by the bar, judiciary, and academy. PBSC was founded at the University of Toronto in 1996 and today operates in 22 law schools across Canada. Each year, PBSC harnesses the talent and drive of approximately 1500 law students across the country to provide legal services free of charge to low-income citizens and not-for-profit organizations. We operate more than 500 projects involving research, public legal education, court assistance, and legal clinics annually. These projects run in partnership with over 400 community organizations, and PBSC’s student volunteers directly serve an estimated 12,000 people facing barriers to justice each year.
