It is also a free legal advisory clinic for the public, and will act at hearings and in courts on behalf of citizens or citizens' groups who are otherwise unable to afford legal assistance. Funded by Legal Aid Ontario, CELA is one of 79 community legal clinics located across Ontario, 15 of which offer services in specialized areas of the law. CELA also undertakes additional educational and law reform projects funded by government and private foundations. CELA was established at the same time as its sister organization the Canadian Institute for Environmental Law and Policy, which does not offer Legal Aid services but focuses on policy related to emerging and neglected environmental issues.
