Meet the dream team
Student Legal Advice Centre (SLAC) was founded in 2022 at the University of Western Australia, by students and for students. SLAC aims to improve access to our justice system by facilitating legal assistance to students for their tenancy and employment matters. We do this by partnering with other organisations, such as Circle Green Community Legal.
