Defining Justice: a JCU student event for Legal Aid

Legal Aid uses the power of the law to increase safety and health; promote education and economic stability; support safe and stable housing; and ensure government and justice systems are accountable and accessible.

By solving fundamental problems for families with low incomes, Legal Aid removes barriers to opportunity and helps people achieve greater stability. This leads to greater engagement in our community, which in turn fosters a more thriving democracy.  The social and racial justice issues Legal Aid tackles are important to all of us.  Together, we can extend justice and create a ripple effect of impact.
