VLF LLB 2023 - Fundraising for WAM

This year the Legal Laneway Breakfast is fundraising for Women and Mentoring (WAM)

WAM offer a unique, early intervention program that supports women in contact with the legal system by matching them with a supportive mentor. The volunteer mentors are trained and resourced to provide appropriate support to the program participants, to share their skills and to contribute to the wider community.

WAM began operating in the City of Yarra (in Melbourne) working with the Neighbourhood Justice Centre in 2009. In 2015 they received funding from the Melbourne Women’s Fund to replicate the program in the Sunshine Magistrates Court precinct and this year they are expanding to Ballarat.
