Legal Pathways to Recovery - Final Evaluation report
The Legal Pathways to Recovery Pilot (LPTR) was conceived and delivered by the Women’s Legal Centre at intouch Multicultural Centre Against Family Violence (‘intouch’). Funded by the Victorian Legal Services Board + Commissioner, the pilot was borne from a lack of accessible, practical legal information for migrant and refugee victim-survivors and high demand for intouch’s legal services, including from clients who did not have immediate legal needs. The LPTR sought to increase migrant and refugee women and gender-diverse victim-survivors’ knowledge of key areas of Australian law and their confidence to make decisions relating to those areas so they had greater agency, support and access to safety.
