Our Bylaws

Our bylaws were updated in 2023 through the work of our Governance committee assisted by the webinars and general guidance provided by Community Legal Education Ontario (CLEO).

SEDRA is a provincial incorporated non-profit organization and was required to update its existing bylaws to conform with the new Ontario Non-For-Profit Corporations Act (ONCA).
