HELP PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF PEOPLE WITH A DISABILITY
Do you want to make a difference to the lives of people in your local community?
The Office of the Public Advocate is looking for people to volunteer as Community Visitors and Independent Third Persons.

Independent Third Persons attend police interviews for adults and young people with disability to ensure that they are not disadvantaged during the interview process.
Training and reimbursement of expenses are provided.
