This invaluable experience exposed me to the realities of public interest lawyering and the capacity of the law to promote social change. Through working on Care and Protection matters, I discovered my passion for increasing the safety of children and parents and was able to see first-hand how our law does (and doesn't) assist in these circumstances. It was also empowering to meet and work alongside lawyers passionate about social justice.
