In case you missed it!
With the slower pace of summer, we’ve been reflecting on the past year and looking ahead to our new fiscal year. It’s the perfect time to revisit some of our new and updated legal information and educational resources. In case you missed them, we’ve gathered some of the highlights from the past year below!
Launch of CPLEA’s Legal Foundations for Justice Navigators
Our new Justice Navigator Program is here!
Aimed to support justice navigators in their work with Albertans experiencing legal issues. The program offers 12 FREE, online, self-paced modules covering a range of legal topics. Whether you’re new to the role or looking to strengthen your knowledge, these modules provide a solid foundation in the law and legal processes.
Get started today at navigator.cplea.ca!
New resources about the Family Focused Protocol
On January 2, 2026, the Court of King’s Bench launched the new Family-Focused Protocol (FFP), which applies to most current and new family cases.
To help Albertans understand these changes, we created a new webpage, Go to the Court of King’s Bench, that explains the different processes for resolving family law cases, as well as the five main steps in the new Regular Family Process under the FFP.
We also created a short video and a new info sheet, Family Law Process in the Court of King’s Bench, to help Albertans better understand the changes.
Busting Legal Myths Webinar Series
There are plenty of myths and misconceptions about the law and legal processes in Canada. That’s why, between September 2025 and April 2026, we explored and debunked some of the most common myths across seven legal topics in our Myth Busting webinar series. If you missed a webinar, don’t worry! You can now watch all of the recordings on our YouTube channel.
