We’re inviting Law, Civics, and History teachers to take a few minutes to reflect on the Charter by filling out the OJEN Charter Survey with their classes during Law Week, April 16-20. 2012. Conducting this survey is also an opportunity for students to reflect on the anniversary of the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms, enacted April 17, 1982.

The Association of Justices of the Peace Bursary will provide direct support to students in secondary school who have enrolled in a post-secondary institution and who plan to pursue a career in the justice sector. The Justice of the Peace bursary program will help students make the transition from secondary school to university or college.  The bursary has been created to assist students who demonstrate academic excellence and commitment to their studies and who are in financial need. 

Navigating the Justice System is a federally funded professional development training session for front-line practitioners working with youth.  Although the bulk of OJEN's programming is often with youth, this session is specifically geared to enhance the capacity of youth workers, educators and front-line community practitioners on the criminal justice system.
