Justices of the Peace stories

Across NSW, Aboriginal JPs are supporting their communities in powerful ways, helping people through life’s important moments with respect, care, and cultural understanding.

Whether it’s helping an Elder sort out aged care paperwork, witnessing a form so someone can get housing, or being there for a young person applying for ID, JPs are often there when it matters most.
