Hume Riverina Community Legal Service


About Us


The Hume Riverina Community Legal Service (HRCLS) is a program funded through the Federal Attorney-General's Department in Canberra.  The Commonwealth Community Legal Service Program specifically funds the program which is administered by Victoria Legal Aid.

Upper Murray Family Care Inc successfully tendered for the provision of a legal service and was granted funding in 1998.  The Community Legal Service was officially launched on 28 July 1999.

We seek to empower individuals and supply them with information that will improve their understanding of their legal problem.  This may mean they are able to resolve their matter without the intervention of lawyers.

We maintain a large range of information resources including material about other services and "self-help" information on the law and related issues.


Vision

To ensure just and equitable access to legal services and resources for individuals and the community in North East Victoria and the Riverina of New South Wales.


Values

To provide safe, reliable and quality legal services respecting the diversity of the community.


Mission

To empower and educate individuals and groups in the community through a broad range of free legal services including legal education, particularly to those who are disadvantaged in their access to justice.


Objectives

1.  To increase and enhance access to the law by the provision of legal advice and education to individuals, groups and the wider community;
2.  To encourage and facilitate commuity involvement in the activities of the Community Legal Service;
3.  To advocate for and actively work towards changes which redress injustices and inequities in the law;
4.  To continually seek to enhance and expand service provision;
