Celebrating 30 years of operation, Eleanor Duncan Aboriginal Services is a staple of support to the Aboriginal community of the Central Coast. LSJ Online spoke to the CEO about their unique philosophy, relationship with the local legal services, and the importance of standing up and supporting some of the most vulnerable people in the country.
Quote in article from Eleanor Duncan Aboriginal Services CEO Belinda Field:
“We’re very fortunate to have key drivers like the Central Coast Community Legal Centre (CCCLC) team and have not one but two solicitors on board who are completely immersed in our environment here at the Eleanor Duncan,” says Belinda Field, the group’s CEO.
“The relationship between our organisation and the CCCLC is a flagship, maybe one of a kind, and I think the Central Coast is really leading by example in terms of partnering with grassroots organisations where, in particular, legal expertise is missing out on the equation.”
