Social Service Organizations

Community Legal Education Association is a charitable organization that provides Manitobans with information about the law through several services. We have existed since 1984.

Funded by the Law Society of Manitoba and The Manitoba Law Foundation, the Law Phone-In & Lawyer Referral Program provides: general legal information and advice over the phone in response to callers’ inquiries, if appropriate, referrals to law-related agencies, in appropriate situations, a referral to a lawyer on the Lawyer Referral panel. The first interview with that lawyer is free (up to half an hour). If we refer you to a lawyer, we will need your name and address for the confirmation letter sent to you and the lawyer. Our phone hours are 9 am to 4 pm, Monday through Friday. We are not a drop-in service! We do not see anyone in person!

CLEA has set up a Workplace Sexual Harassment Hotline for Manitoba. The Hotline is staffed by a staff lawyer who can provide legal information and advice, make appropriate referrals to agencies, print and other resources. In appropriate circumstances, the staff lawyer can refer the client to a lawyer on CLEA’s lawyer referral panel for representation. This project is funded by Justice Canada.

If you are in immediate danger call 911. If someone is being abused and is not in immediate danger, the Domestic Violence Crisis Line is open 24 hours at 1-877-977-0007. You can call this line for information and to discuss options. CLEA has set up a phone line and dedicated email address so that we can provide prompt legal information and referrals to resources. As part of the project, we are doing outreach. This includes organizing workshops about IPV related subjects for the public as well as for agencies and professionals providing assistance to those impacted by family and relationship violence.

We’ve recently become Gender Equity Manitoba from the Manitoba Status of Women Secretariat. Gender Equity Manitoba works to advance gender equity across the province.

Advocacy is at the heart of all activities conducted by the office of the Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth. In all forms our advocacy takes, working towards the best interests of the child and supporting the voices of children, youth, and young adults guides us in being effective advocates in individual cases and on a larger systemic scale.

MACY is legislated to be involved in public education on the interests and well-being of children. MACY provides education and engagement all over Manitoba and our mandate regularly takes us across the province’s nearly 650,000 square kilometres. It is important to us to provide our advocacy services throughout the entire province, including in northern, rural, and remote communities. Service equity is an issue to which we hold other systems accountable, and it is important that we also demonstrate our own commitment to this ideal.

The Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth (MACY) recognizes the unique gifts, strengths, and talents of young people and understand the importance of creating and facilitating opportunities for youth to lead change and strengthen communities through engagement that is meaningful for youth. Guided by the rights described in the United Nations Conventions on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), MACY strives to protect these rights and believes that every child should have a say in decisions that affect their lives.

When any child, youth, or young adult up to age 21 dies in Manitoba, the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) officially notifies the Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth (Manitoba Advocate). If the child or their family had received any reviewable service (child welfare) within 12 months of the death of the child, the Manitoba Advocate may review and investigate the public services that were delivered to the child and their family. The purpose of the reviews and investigations is to examine the effectiveness and responsiveness of the services provided to the child and their family.

The Quality Assurance program at the Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth was implemented in 2013 in an effort to ensure the internal and external work of the office was always striving toward excellence. From its beginning, the primary goals of the program were to help prepare the office for future growth, promote organizational stability, and ensure that quality and efficient services are delivered to children, youth, young adults, and their families across the province.

The office of the Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth (MACY) is committed to working toward reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. MACY has created an internal ReconciliACTION Framework for its offices. Led by the Indigenous Deputy Advocate and Knowledge Keeper at our office, the ReconciliACTION Framework is a guide we use in our office to advance meaningful reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. It describes our approach and plan to advance reconciliation through our work.

The Manitoba Advocate’s Research Hub is empowered by Section 11(1) of The Advocate for Children and Youth Act. The Research Hub focuses on improving the effectiveness and responsiveness of services provided to children and youth in Manitoba which include: child welfare, adoption, disability, addiction, mental health, education, victim support, and youth justice.

The Advocate’s responsibilities respecting the review and investigation of serious injuries to children, youth, or young adults is included in Part 4 of the ACYA. While the Manitoba Advocate is currently empowered to investigate serious injuries that come to the attention of the office, what remains yet to be proclaimed is the requirement of service providers to submit to mandatory reporting to the Manitoba Advocate serious injuries of children and youth. Our office has been informed this portion of the legislation will be proclaimed once necessary regulations have been developed.

The Social Services Appeal Board (SSAB) is a group of people appointed by the Lieutenant-Governor in Council. The purpose of SSAB is to give Manitobans a fair, impartial, and informal appeal process of decisions relating to various social services and programs. The board has the authority to review appeals from Manitobans applying for, or receiving services under the following Manitoba Government programs: Employment and Income Assistance Program (Income Assistance, General Assistance, Shelter Assistance), Adoption Agency Licensing, Child Care Licensing and Subsidies, Child Care Qualifications Certification, 55-Plus: A Manitoba Income Supplement, Junior Component Rent Assist, Manitoba Prenatal Benefit, Residential Care Licensing, Employability Assistance for People with Disabilities Program (eligibility), and Community Living disABILITY Services Program (eligibility).

Harm Reduction is a best practice model for providing services in health care and social service programming for people who use substances and are impacted by colonial and structural violence; particularly the War on (BIPOC) People Who Use Drugs. Harm Reduction is more than needle distribution, and in fact, you do not need to do distribution to work from this model. Rather than focus on individual behaviour, our approach to harm reduction focuses on how systems create and exacerbate harms to people who use drugs and other oppressed groups, often by design and with intent. All workshops are delivered through an anti-oppression and anti-racism lens.
