The Flemington Kensington Community Legal Centre provides services for newly arrived migrants with a focus on policing, discrimination and human rights. Its specific fundraising objective at our TFN event is to address problems that arise from police racial profiling. It intends hosting a series of “Know your rights/Tell your story” workshops to empower young Indigenous people and migrants to share their experience, connect with others and ultimately build the case for policy reforms in Victoria.
