People's Law School

The People’s Law School is a registered non-profit society whose purpose is to provide people with impartial education about their rights and responsibilities under the law. We do this by means of free, plain language booklets, speakers, workshops, and our Justice Theatre program. We make special efforts to serve needy or vulnerable people, such as seniors, immigrants, youth, and working people. For copies of our booklets, visit our website, click on Publications and then on Booklet Order Form.
