Volunteers and the Law helps volunteers, staff and board members learn about how the law applies to volunteer activities and the work you do. By understanding the law, you will be able to prevent or minimize your risks. The information is current to 2000. (Not updated to account for the 2016 Societies Act.)
If you're looking for advice specific to your situation, there are options for free or low-cost help.
