Justice and health partnerships have emerged as a proactive approach to addressing intersecting legal and health problems. Partnerships are beginning to appear in Canada, and involve legal professionals partnering with health

care providers to identify legal issues that could potentially result in health problems. As part of the Second Annual Saskatchewan Access to Justice Week, Michele Leering, founder of the Rural Justice & Health Partnerships Project, will discuss the vital role justice-health partnerships have to play in increasing access to justice in Saskatchewan.

Space is limited for this event. Please register to createjustice@usask.ca.
