Membership
The African Canadian Legal Clinic believes in encouraging and building an active membership. An active membership is a resource pool for skills, talent, energy, volunteers, and financial support. Membership is also a way for the clinic to keep concerned and interested individuals in the community updated about its work and the issues facing the community.
