inTouch Multicultural Centre Against Family Violence’s Post

Last week, representatives from 160 Community Legal Centres launched a national campaign at Parliament House, urging the Federal Government to save the frontline legal services that support 180,000 people annually. Chronic underfunding has left many Community Legal Centres, (including our Women’s Legal Centre) struggling to meet demand. These centres are lifelines for vulnerable communities, particularly migrant and refugee women facing family violence. Without immediate funding, many will have to cut essential services, leaving countless Australians without legal support. We stand with the Federation of Community Legal Centres in calling for urgent government action. Properly funded Community Legal Centres are not only crucial for a fairer Australia, but quite literally save lives. It's time to ensure these vital services remain open and accessible to those who need them most. More here: https://lnkd.in/guPxmE3f #SaveCommunityLegalCentres
