Building Inclusive and Accessible Family Justice: Practical Approaches to Innovate Family Law Systems in BC’s Rural and Remote Communities
The report identifies opportunities to improve family law for women and gender diverse people located outside of the Lower Mainland, and calls for the government, the courts, Legal Aid BC, the Law Society of BC, lawyers, and support workers to collaborate to close gaps in access to justice.

Funded by the Law Foundation of BC, this project was conducted between June and December 2023. This project sought to identify potential options for creating these safeguards, and to make recommendations to the Ministry of the Attorney General, which is currently undertaking the Family Law Act Modernization Project.
