LEAF Ottawa is a branch run by law students at the University of Ottawa, currently co-chaired by Éadaoin Catherine O’Gorman and Emma Boland. We have a vibrant executive team and general membership spanning throughout the Faculty of Law and beyond. LEAF Ottawa puts on numerous events during the academic year, often in collaboration with other clubs at the Faculty of Law. We additionally organize and facilitate public legal education workshops primarily for local high school students on topics such as consent and reproductive justice.
We are a fully bilingual branch which regularly conducts programming in both English and French. Our branch aims to be active both on- an off-campus throughout the wider Ottawa-Gatineau metropolitan area, and encourages anyone—student or not—who wants to be involved to sign-up as a branch member, follow us on social media, or reach out to us at the email below!
