Check out what some of our 2025-2026 partner organizations and students have to say!
“The NBCPD greatly appreciates all the effort put in by pro bono law students. Our organization consists entirely of volunteers with disabilities, and sometimes our bodies prevent us from working at full speed. The research conducted by Pro Bono Law will help us change and legalize accessible housing across Canada. We could not have done this without the help of Hannah from UNB Pro Bono Law.”
Shelley Petit – New Brunswick Coalition for Persons with Disabilities
“The pro bono students were instrumental in allowing our full-time students to take on more files and help more clients access services. The pro bono students were able to offer valuable assistance in researching legal issues and screening clients. The clinic’s capacity was increased by 25% because of the pro bono students’ involvement. We truly appreciate it.”
Jeanette Savoie – UNB Legal Clinic
“For several years, I’ve been working with PBSC students from the University of New Brunswick on two projects: providing plain language legal information with Public Legal Education and Information Service of New Brunswick, and operating the Trans ID clinic with Imprint Youth Association. Neither one of these projects would be able to operate fully without the help of enthusiastic law student volunteers. Non profits are often balancing constraints for time and funding, and the support of PBSC helps expand our capacity to serve people directly with legal help and information they might not otherwise be able to access. I am exceedingly grateful for the contributions of PBSC students to our work over the years.”
Amber Chisholm – Public Legal Education and Information Society of New Brunswick and IMPRINT Trans ID Clinic
“My placement with Pro Bono Students Canada through the Elizabeth Fry Society of New Brunswick was a very rewarding experience. It complemented my legal education by giving me the opportunity to see the realities of access to justice issues outside of a textbook or classroom setting. It also strengthened my confidence in communicating legal concepts clearly and deepened my commitment to community-focused legal work.”
