Community & Health Justice Partnerships | Homelessness Law and Multicultural Law

Homelessness Law is Queensland’s free specialist legal service for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

Homelessness Law prevents and ends homelessness by resolving legal issues connected to a person’s housing, money, and experience of violence.

Multicultural Law provides free civil law help for newly arrived Queenslanders from multicultural backgrounds.

Implementing an outreach-based, trauma informed model, staff lawyers are fully embedded in frontline homelessness and health agencies in both Brisbane and Cairns.
