Navigating the Justice System with a Brain Injury
A free online toolkit created by Acquired Brain Injury Canada (ABI) that provides information on navigating the justice system with a brain injury. Information for both legal professionals who want to better understand brain injury, and a guide for legal resources created for persons with brain injury and their supporters.

The French & Spanish versions were prepared by No One is Illegal. The No One is Illegal website is no longer active, and as a result these versions of the guide may not be up-to-date.
Female Keep Separate: Prisons, gender, and the violence of inclusion
This text is written by and for queers and their friends. It is meant as part of a conversation around inclusion and identity where the validity of queer people isn’t in question, and focuses on the experiences of a trans person in prison.
This report is a summary of the information that was researched and reviewed by members of the Disability Justice Network of Ontario’s “Prison Project”. The project in its entirety is meant to review, hear, and amplify the voices and experiences of those who are disabled, racialized, and incarcerated while also working to provide direct support and educate the public.
