ALSWA provides culturally safe legal representation and support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples throughout WA. Its clients represent some of WA’s most disadvantaged people, many suffering from mental illness, homelessness, or carrying the legacy of our stolen generations including institutionalism, dispossession and marginalisation. ALSWA’s approach is a holistic, human rights based one that goes beyond straight civil, criminal and family legal representation, advice and support services to advocacy, community and school education, lobbying and working cooperatively with other organisations devoted to Aboriginal people.
