Project & Education Report
The 2020 - 2021 year continued to be a period of adaptation and innovation in the way we approach our Community Legal Education program.
Rather than delivering Community Legal Education sessions in person we developed a suite of online resources and presentations in an effort to continue to engage with our communities.
We were however fortunate to be able to run some Law Week events in person. We held an information session for Parents and Carers, exploring the topics of cyber bullying, sexting, and keeping kids safe online during Law Week. After the session a panel of experts from various organisations including Ballarat community Health, Child & Family Services (CAFS), Victoria Police, Centre Against Sexual Assault (CASA) and Victoria Legal Aid; we would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their contributions.
We also partnered with CAFS for a "Bring Your Bills" Day which proved very successful with bookings filling up with our lawyers and financial counsellors and Adrian Tinetti teamed up with Ballarat Libraries for "Lawyers in Libraries"
We look forward to being able to get back on the road and engaging with the community in the new year!
