2023/24 Annual Report
06/11/2024
Legal Aid Manitoba is pleased to announce that our 2023/24 Annual Report has been tabled in the Manitoba Legislature.
This year marks our 51st year of operations and shows a near return to our Pre-COVID numbers across the province. This year we provided assistance in over 96,000 matters through our Duty Counsel, Telephone assistance and Full Representation services. While the largest part of our services continue to be assistance to adults and youth charged with criminal offences, 17.5% or over 5,800 matters were for Family Law, Child Protection and Immigration work.
The annual report provides an overview of the services we provide and the significant efforts Legal Aid Manitoba takes to ensure that high quality legal services are provided throughout the province every day, ensuring that Manitoba continues to meet it’s constitutional obligations. Today we assist more Manitobans than ever before, we provide legal assistance on more areas of law than any other plan and our guidelines remain one of the highest in the country. We are extremely proud of our 50 plus years of service to Manitoba and look forward to our next half century!
