Ce projet se concentrera sur l'amélioration des services de justice locaux dans plusieurs communautés indigènes des T.N.-O. Le projet engagera les membres de la communauté à chercher des moyens d'améliorer les relations avec les fonctionnaires de la justice, ainsi qu'à accroître l'utilisation de la technologie pour favoriser l'accès à la justice et aux autres services associés.
