ARC Justice is an independent, not-for-profit organisation that provides housing and legal services across much of Central Victoria, Australia. We protect and enhance the rights and interests of those in our community who are disadvantaged due to structural, social, economic or cultural inequalities. We provide legal services, housing advocacy and support, education and policy work. Our service covers a large part of central and northern Victoria through our Bendigo-based Housing Justice and Loddon Campaspe Community Legal Centre, and our Shepparton-based Goulburn Valley Community Legal Centre. We have a deep knowledge of the law affecting disadvantaged individuals and communities, insights into their particular support and advocacy needs and the capacity to engage with policy makers to improve justice outcomes at a systemic level.
