Kingsford Legal Centre’s Aboriginal Access Program (AAP) aims to ensure that we provide strong, culturally appropriate services to the Aboriginal communities of our local area.

Kingsford Legal Centre has established an Aboriginal Advisory Group that includes members of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community who have a special interest in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice. The group provides guidance on the program’s direction.

Aboriginal Access Worker

Kingsford Legal Centre’s Aboriginal Access Worker strives to create and maintain productive, respectful, working partnerships with the local Aboriginal communities by providing avenues of legal support and access to local community groups and individuals.  

Some of the services provided by our Aboriginal Access Worker include:

Support Person

Kingsford Legal Centre’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients can choose to have KLC’s Aboriginal Access Worker present and assist them to use our services.

Community Legal Education Programs

Kingsford Legal Centre’s Aboriginal Access Worker designs and runs community workshops addressing specific legal issues and needs affecting the local community.

Law and Policy Reform

Kingsford Legal Centre’s Aboriginal Access Worker engages with law and policy reform in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander social justice.

Educational Seminars for UNSW KLC Students

As a part of KLC's clinical legal training university course, UNSW Law & Justice students have a unique opportunity to connect and work with the local Aboriginal community. Students are encouraged to become particularly involved with the work of KLC’s AAP.
