National Networks
There are a number of National Networks made up of community legal centre workers and sometimes others who work and/or have interest in particular areas of law, with particular target groups or CLC operations. These Networks develop national policy and positions regarding current issues faced by their clients, and participate in public debate on those issues. National Networks have the opportunity to meet face to face once a year at the National CLCs Conference, and meet by phone link up at other times during the year. National Convenors of these Networks are listed below.
