About WTCLS

WTCLS is a non-profit community-based legal clinic and housing help service provider funded by Legal Aid Ontario and the City of Toronto.

Legal Services

We provide free legal services to low income people living in our area of West Toronto. We provide service in a number of areas of law, including landlord and tenant, employment, social assistance, and immigration.

Please note that we primarily provide legal advice. We are not able to represent in most cases. In landlord and tenant matters, we are only able to consider representation in cases involving a risk of eviction. Please inquire if you would like more information on our case selection criteria.

We also provide legal information sessions for members of the public and other community agencies. With our community partners, we also work to improve the laws that affect low income people in Ontario.

Housing Help Services

We also deliver a housing help program funded by the City of Toronto. We help low income people living in West Toronto to search for safe and affordable housing. We can assist with searches for market rent, subsidized, and specialized housing. We have a number of associated programs, including case management, community outreach, and access to the Rent Bank.

A community-based board of directors is responsible providing oversight for our work.
