Donations & fundraising.
Children and young people are particularly vulnerable in their encounters with the justice system because of their physical, emotional and social immaturity. The needs of young people, and indeed the law and legal processes that apply to them, are different to those of the general population.
You can help ensure that all young people in Western Australia can continue to access free legal assistance by supporting our valuable work.
Donations of $2 and above are tax deductible.

It is crucial that young people receive timely advice and representation in response to their complex legal needs. In providing this service, we assist young people to develop respect for the law, encourage active citizenship and promote community safety for a positive future.
We provide free professional legal services to children and young people throughout Western Australia, including advice, casework and court representation.
We also play an active role in raising awareness of the legal rights and responsibilities of young people, through community education, advocacy and law reform campaigns.
