The Youth Injustice panel will explore the youth-specific findings from the Victoria Law Foundation’s Public Understanding of Law Survey (PULS) generally, and specifically regarding young people’s employment law needs, and will ask the question how might the legal assistance sector use this research to address young people’s unmet legal needs?
