JPI helps individuals and communities understand where appropriate legal assistance and support may be available.
Finding the right route can be the first barrier.
General information, rights awareness, signposting, referrals, community workshops and connections with specialist organisations can help people identify the next appropriate step.
Justice Project International does not replace regulated legal advice. Where formal legal advice or representation is required, assistance should be obtained from an appropriately qualified and, where applicable, regulated professional or organisation.
If a matter is urgent, involves a court deadline, risk of harm, arrest, detention or imminent homelessness, specialist advice should be sought immediately.
