The Access to Justice Network (ACJNet) is an electronic community that brings together people, information, and educational resources on justice and legal issues of interest to Canadians. It uses new technologies to create and distribute products and services and to facilitate broad base consultations. ACJNet is the only nationwide service dedicated to making law and justice resources available to all Canadians in either official language. The success of ACJNet depends on the support of affiliates who work with us to ensure the widest possible access to information and resources. ACJNet is a project of the Legal Resource Centre. It is supported by funding from the Alberta Law Foundation. For more information about ACJNet, email us at info.lrc@u |
