Meet Billie, our youngest volunteer!

She was originally training to become a service dog but had to be retired early due to a medical condition (hip dysplasia). Billie is making a very meaningful difference in our Calgary Community Court Program. This friendly Labrador retriever brings comfort, calm, and companionship to our clients - whether she is lending a caring paw, joining someone for a comforting walk, or simply being a gentle presence when it is needed most.

Support can come in many forms. Sometimes, it looks like four paws, a wagging tail, and a gentle presence when it matters most.

We are so lucky to have Billie as part of our team. Drop a 🐾 in the comments to say hello.

🏳️‍🌈 This Pride Month, we recognize and celebrate the resilience, diversity, and contributions of the 2SLGBTQI+ community.

Pride is more than a celebration—it is a reminder of the ongoing pursuit of equality, dignity, and human rights. It is an opportunity to reflect on the barriers and discrimination that many 2SLGBTQI+ individuals have faced, and continue to face, in accessing opportunities, services, and justice.

At Calgary Legal Guidance, we believe everyone deserves to be treated with respect and have access to the support and resources they need. We are proud to stand as allies and remain committed to fostering an inclusive community where all people feel welcomed, valued, and empowered.

This Pride Month and every month, we stand with the 2SLGBTQI+ community in support of equity, inclusion, and access to justice for all.
🏳️‍🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

🎸⚖️ A huge thank you to the organizers, performers, sponsors, and everyone who supported this year’s Great Bar Band Battle!

What began as a celebration of music and community within Calgary’s legal profession has become a powerful force for good. Through the incredible generosity of those involved, this event continues to support organizations working to improve access to justice in our community.

Since 2016, more than $250,000 has been raised for Calgary Legal Guidance, Student Legal Assistance, and Pro Bono Law Alberta—helping ensure more individuals and families can access the legal support they need.

We are deeply grateful to be one of the beneficiaries of this remarkable event. Thank you for turning your passion for music into meaningful impact for our community.
