The Canadian Legal Literacy Foundation (CLLF) is a youth-led nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging the legal gap in Canada. We believe that the legal system should be accessible, equitable, and responsive to the voices of future generations. Through our publications, programs, and platforms, we create space for an intergenerational community of legal thinkers, including students, educators, legal professionals, and advocates, all committed to shaping a more informed and just society. The organization was previously titled the Canadian Law Review (CLR).
At CLLF, we understand that real change starts with knowledge and connection. That’s why we focus on mentorship, legal education, advocacy, and community-building to equip youth with the tools they need to engage meaningfully with the law. Whether through writing, discussion, or direct action, we support young people in exploring the role of law in their lives and the power they have to change it. By democratizing access to legal literacy and reducing barriers to participation, we’re building a national network of passionate, engaged, and socially conscious future legal professionals. Together, we’re not just studying Canadian law, but we’re reimagining who gets to shape it.
The Canadian Legal Literacy Foundation's mission is to empower youth to engage with and shape Canadian law and public policy through advocacy, education, and community.
