Facing History and Ourselves

With Thanks

Our Ontario Education Programming is generously funded by the Law Foundation of Ontario. Thanks to their support, we are able to reach students and offer our programming to them and to their teachers.

Each year CCLET reaches 11,000+ elementary to graduate level students, from a wide range of public, separate, and private educational institutions. Through our Civil Liberties in the Classroom and our Teaching Civil Liberties programs, which are funded by both a Law Foundation of Ontario (LFO) grant and private donations, we provide workshops, seminars, and in-class sessions for schools, school boards, faculties of education, and community groups and nonprofit agencies, educating people in Canada about their rights and freedoms.
