The Ontario Bar Association functions as the Ontario arm of the Canadian Bar Association, providing education and advocacy to support lawyers so they can better serve the public. It helps members become more efficient and professionally prepared by offering educational programs and opportunities to participate in law reform at provincial and federal levels, with member programs often available at reduced costs to CBA members. Through its national and provincial sections and regular meetings, the association facilitates professional connections and keeps members informed about developments affecting the legal profession. Based in Toronto, Ontario, the OBA is a mid-sized professional organization within the legal services sector. The Ontario Branch has existed since 1907 and was incorporated in 1985, reflecting its long-standing role in the province's legal community. In recent years the association has expanded community outreach through partnerships with Goodwill Industries and Pro Bono Ontario to broaden access to legal services and pro bono opportunities.
