We’re an independent, non-profit community organisation. For over 30 years, people of the Gold Coast have come to us for free legal help. Our specialty is working with vulnerable clients to get the best possible outcomes.
The Gold Coast Community Legal Centre’s Management Committee adopted a Strategic Plan on 21st of June 2018. It outlines our mission, values and direction. It’s current from 2018 to 2021 and can be downloaded here.
