🌟 A Huge Thank You to Grego and Jessica! 🌟 In November and December, Grego and Jessica dedicated an incredible 200 hours as interns through the The McCusker Centre for Citizenship at UWA. 🎥 Grego brought creativity and energy to our team, getting us behind the camera to film engaging legal education videos. These videos aim to empower our clients—especially young people—with vital legal knowledge for navigating interactions with police and the court system. ⚖ Jessica, as a legal intern, took on tasks to assist with our ongoing casework in both civil and criminal matters. Her time and attention to detail were invaluable to the team. 🙌 It was a pleasure working with you both, and your contributions made a real impact. Good luck with your studies and thank you for volunteering your time with us! ... See MoreSee Less
