Effective from Monday, 23 March the Central Queensland Community Legal Centre will only be undertaking appointments via telephone, face time, zoom or skype. This is applicable to our operations at Rockhampton, Biloela and Emerald.
Advice sessions at outreach sites have been cancelled and the employment and evening clinics have also been suspended for the short term.
Whilst staff will be working at the centre, the office will be closed to walk-ins. Should it become necessary to close the office, we will continue to provide our services off-site as per our continuity plan.
Central Queensland Community Legal Centre is an independent non-profit organisation funded by grants from the State and Federal governments, donations from the general public and membership fees. CQLC provide access to legal services for the vulnerable and disadvantaged in regional, rural and remote communities.
The service provides general legal advice, referral and some casework on a full time basis. It services communities stretching from just south of Mackay to Bundaberg and west to the Queensland border. The Centre also undertakes collaborative community legal education activities.
