JES offers in-person court visits to school and community groups in courthouses across BC. Court visits allow students to engage with our justice system and see the law in action. Each year JES helps thousands of students increase their legal capability and deepen their understanding of our justice system.
Our group visits usually provide one hour of legal education and court orientation, the opportunity to observe live court cases, and a short debrief. Some sessions will also offer a legal professional guest speaker. We ask that you please review the court protocols before you visit the courts. Review Court Protocol.
