Hi! Sarouche & Tallulah here! We are both part of the Kimberley Community Legal Service Team and we run a Kimberley based Aboriginal Justice radio show.
We air every second Friday at 1pm on Goolarri Radio 99.7FM.
We cover current justice issues that affect Aboriginal people, with close relevance to people in the Kimberley. If you have any issues that you want to hear about - let us know!
KCLS is the community legal service for the Kimberley. Our offices are in Broome and Kununurra, and we do regular outreach to Fitzroy Crossing, Warmun, Halls Creek, Wyndham, and Derby, seasonal outreach to Kalumburu, Balgo, and the Dampier Peninsula, and we’re looking to re-launch the Bidyadanga service soon.
We take on all kinds of civil law matters for people who can’t afford a lawyer: most of our work is tenancy, family law and family violence, debt matters, licencing and we also do some employment matters. We are involved in systemic justice issues like stolen wages, Royal Commissions, and Inquests.
Our Broome office is at 3/41 Carnarvon Street and our Kununurra office is on 4 Papuana Street.
We acknowledge the ancestors, elders and families of the First Nations of the Kimberley, who are the traditional custodians of the country we are located on. As we work to achieve a just and fair society we pay our respects to the deep knowledge embedded within the Aboriginal community and Aboriginal custodianship of Country. We acknowledge this land as a place of age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal, and that the First Nations living culture has a fundamental role in the life of this region. In working for justice, we also state that sovereignty has never been ceded.
