Our Referral Guide
Street Law Centre WA acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we live and work, the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation. We recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s strength and resilience and pay our respects to Elders past and present. We extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and recognise their rich cultures and their continuing connection to land, sky, waters and community. This land always was, and always will be Aboriginal land.
Anti-racism is an active process that requires committed, consistent, and targeted attention and action. As an organisation focused on justice, equity and decolonising the legal system we have a zero-tolerance policy for racism and are committed to addressing systemic racial privilege and disadvantage. We seek to identify, call out and redress ways of working and systems, including our own, that cause harm or additional hurdles for those who have been racialised.
