Description

The Alberta Law Foundation invites Alberta-based non-profit organizations, independently or as consortium leads, to express interest in developing and implementing a province-wide AI-enabled technology platform. The proposed platform would help Albertans access legal information, navigate the justice system, organize information about legal concerns, and connect with legal services and human assistance. This is an exploratory, non-binding process to assess potential solutions, organizational capabilities, partnerships, costs, governance, and risks before ALF decides whether and how to proceed. Responses are due December 18, 2026, and must include a completed questionnaire, indicative budget, and signed letter of interest.
