Victoria’s first exclusively by-youth, for youth legal education.
Lack of knowledge or skills should never be the reason young people experience the legal system. That’s why we help young people understand the law.
We run by youth, for youth legal education designed to give young people the information and skills they need to make informed choices and navigate complex legal situations.

Our Workshops.
By young people, for young people
Learning about the law doesn’t have to be daunting or boring.
Our workshops are designed specifically for young people. That’s why the law, the stories, the skills — they’re all based on the needs and interests of the young people we’re working with. It’s why engagement comes first: we put fun, interest and rapport-building at the top of our priority list. It’s also why our sessions are delivered by young people. No suits or uniforms. No teachers or parents. It’s by young people, for young people.

Our Crew.
Aspiring lawyers committed to impact
The talented young people that lead delivery of our workshops
Our Crew are all young people. That’s what makes our sessions work: they understand what it’s like to be a young person today. No awkward formality, “when I was young” stories, or lame pop culture references from the 80s (except cool ones). Just young people talking about the law.
