From Western Sydney Community Legal Centre:

"Law Week NSW 2022 is happening between 16-22 May. WSCLC has prepared a series of events for the community to participate and learn more about our legal systems and issues.

Starting on 16 May, WSCLC is delivering a talk about legal problem-spotting for community workers. All community and social workers are welcome to join this free online event. The talk will discuss on identifying common legal issues, recognising free legal services available in the community and learning about effective free referral to a free legal service. The event will be held from 1pm-2pm through Zoom. Register your interest here today!

With social media becoming the dominate communication platform, WSCLC recognises the rising legal issues involving the increasing use of social media in recent years. Join us on Wednesday 18 May to know more on how to use social media safely and avoid potential legal problems. You can join us either through Zoom or meet us at Headspace in Castle Hill from 5:30pm – 6:30pm. Click here to register your interest!
