AFTERWORD[edit]

Legal Information for Indigenous People would have never been written without the ProBono Students Canada program at UBC Allard School of Law. Four law students spent a total of 2 academic years researching and writing the wide spectrum of material found here and then editing it all down to mere pages per topic. Next came the many legal reviewers who lent their expertise to this perhaps unusually concise plain language resource.

The Bella Coola Legal Advocacy Program has worked on over 10,000 client matters throughout the years. A common thread running through all of these is the hugeness of the law's daily impacts on people's lives and the immense relief people feel when given the basic information they need to understand and engage in the legal process.
