The Alberta government says it will be investing $8 million in a program to help Albertans access justice services.
Officials say the Family Justice Strategy, which was first introduced in Edmonton and Calgary in December 2023, is already making a difference for Alberta families, with initial data showcasing a notable 36 per cent increase in matters resolved through Alberta Justice dispute resolution programs.
Building on this success, officials say Alberta’s government will be investing an additional $5 million through Budget 2024 to support the complete rollout of these enhanced pre-court services in Edmonton and Calgary.
