About the organisation

Organisation Name : Health Justice Australia

About health justice partnerships (HJPs): 

A quiet revolution is taking place across Australia that is transforming the way some of the most vulnerable in our community access legal services.

In a practitioner-led movement, community lawyers have been moving out of their offices and into the most unlikely of places – hospitals and community health settings – to collaborate with health services and their patients to address unmet, health-harming legal need.

Known as health justice partnerships, these collaborations work by embedding legal help into healthcare services and teams. They have formed in response to a growing body of evidence that shows there are groups of people who are vulnerable to intersecting legal and health problems, but who are unlikely to turn to legal services for solutions.

About Health Justice Australia:

Health Justice Australia was established in 2016 as a is a national charity and centre of excellence for health justice partnership. Health Justice Australia supports the expansion and effectiveness of health justice partnerships through:

  • Knowledge and its translation: developing evidence and translating that evidence into knowledge that is valued by practitioners, researchers, policy-makers and funders.

  • Building capability: supporting practitioners to work collaboratively, including through brokering, mentoring and facilitating partnerships.

  • Driving systems change: connecting the experience of people coming through health justice partnerships, and their practitioners, with opportunities for lasting systems change through reforms to policy settings, service
    design and funding.
