Our purpose is to ensure that people in the Northern Territory understand their legal rights and disadvantaged people have access to quality legal services, and to uphold a fair Northern Territory and national justice system.

The position requires a self-motivated person who has experience working with young people. The applicant will require an understanding of the criminal justice system and how it relates to young people and will focus on information, support, and assistance. On-going training will be provided in relation to specific legal issues. The successful applicant will be confident in case planning, providing support to young people and families and will value working collaboratively in a team and with other agencies.
