Pro Bono Students Canada (PBSC) is a national program that was officially launched at the University of Windsor, Faculty of Law in 1998. The primary function of this program is to match law student volunteers with community agencies that have a need for legal services but have insufficient resources to compensate legal counsel. Agencies typically involved in Pro Bono Students Canada include public interest and non-profit organizations, tribunals, legal clinics and lawyers working pro bono on a particular case. Law student volunteers complete legal research or other law-related projects for member organizations over the course of the academic year under the supervision of a lawyer mentor.
