It was both a compelling and affirming discussion today with the Attorney-General of Australia Mark Dreyfus KC MP and Sharyn Broomhead on the vital importance of investing in an evidence-based practice model. We are so grateful to our passionate team for knowing the value of embedding evaluation into our daily practice, and their commitment to demonstrating the 'whole of life' improvements gained by bringing integrated legal help to people, wherever they present for help.
