Aboriginal Legal Access Program Radio Show

Abstract

The Northern Rivers CLC's Aboriginal Legal Access Program (ALAP) has a weekly radio show on 88.9fm Richmond Valley Radio. The show features Indigenous music, and legal and other relevant information.

88.9fm is a community radio station situated at Bora Ridge with a large listening base derived from the local Aboriginal communities.

The Centre started the program in mid November 2011 and has so far featured NRCLC services, domestic violence, human rights, youth legal issues and family law and children. The ALAP radio show is an access to justice initiative that aims to convey legal information to the local Aboriginal communities and to increase participation in the Centre’s outreach advice locations.

For further information, tune into 88.9fm Richmond Valley Radio via their website (www.radio889.org.au).

The ALAP program goes to air on Tuesdays between 2 and 3pm.
