As you know, as part of its mandate, the Law Society recommends and makes appointments to a variety of boards, councils and committees.  

The Law Society recognizes the importance of diversity in their appointments process and will take into account membership in equality-seeking communities and knowledge of equality, diversity and inclusion issues. 

Currently, the LSO is seeking applications for the following:

• Legal Aid Board of Directors
• Justices of the Peace Appointments Advisory Committee (Toronto region)
• Federal Judicial Advisory Committee
• Civil Rules Committee
• Family Rules Committee

The deadline for applications for the Legal Aid Board of Directors is August 15.  They will be considering applications for other appointments beginning this fall.
