The Legal Community Coordinating Committee
The Legal Community Coordinating Committee was developed in the Fall of 1998 upon the
recommendation of Juanita Westmoreland-Traore, who was then the Dean of the Faculty of Law at
the University of Windsor. The Committee is comprised of non-for-profit legal service providers
who serve modest and low-income families and individuals. The primary purpose of the Committee
is to develop and implement strategies that result in more effective delivery of services to our clients.
On June 22, 1999, the Legal Community Coordinating Committee hosted a community consultation.
The primary purpose of the consultation was to provide information about our respective
organizations, discuss community trends and needs, and to receive recommendations to improve the
delivery of legal services to low-income individuals and families.
The consultation identified a number of needs and issues. The most frequently cited need was for
more effective coordination between the legal service providers. As well, the community identified
specific populations and areas of law which needed to be addressed by the legal services system.
As a measure of our ongoing commitment to address the needs identified by the community, we have
embarked upon a process to ensure more effective coordination of our services, to explore ways to
meet the needs of specific groups, to fill gaps in services, and to improve our overall service delivery
system. The use of a common brochure, or one brochure which outlines all legal services, was
recommended as one way to decrease confusion about the various services which are available.
