We’re asking you to email a letter to the NSW Government in support of reinstating Not-for-profit Law’s funding so we can continue to support a strong and vibrant NSW community sector.

Justice Connect’s Not-for-profit Law program is the only nationally available source of free legal support for community organisations across Australia. 

After funding us for a number of years, in October 2022 the NSW Government stopped funding our work. 

Since then, we have not been able to deliver our full suite of free legal and governance support to community organisations based in NSW. Tens of thousands of small and medium sized, often volunteer-run, organisations that rely on us have had to go without our support. 

Without access to our support, many organisations struggle to navigate legal and governance issues, which in turn impacts their ability to deliver services to their communities efficiently, effectively, and sustainably. 

We need your help to ensure a sustainable NSW community sector, where frontline organisations can access our free legal support to help them deliver services to the growing number of people in need across the state every day.
