The JAS operates across all of NSW. Great to see PRIME7 News Wagga interview our JAS Team Leader Tanya Jones and highlight the vital service we provide that is at risk of losing funding. #JusticeMatters #Wagga #DisabilityRights CID youtu.be/stB2ct6nYGI via YouTube

Great research by UNSW @3DN_UNSW that indicates a separation between prisoners with ID and support services, which could help reduce reoffending. This is the vital work that Justice Advocacy Service performs all across NSW regional and urban areas. #JusticeMatters Justice Reform Initiative CID

Thank you Jenny Aitchison for recognising the amazing Joyce Pinchin today. We are so fortunate to have Joyce as part of the JAS team. At Maitland LC Joyce was often referred to as 'Mrs IDRS'. What a great community member. Thank you Joyce! x.com/The_JAS_/statu…
