ABOUT US
Empower Survivors Transform Lives
WJL was born over a warm cup of tea in a cozy living room during a winter catch-up between two girlfriends in 2024.
The issue of domestic violence arose and they both recognised the lack of empowerment women face within the system. This sparked a shared passion to create change, leading to the founding of
WOMEN’S JUSTICE LEAGUE
What started as a conversation soon evolved into a movement, as those two friends joined forces with a group of dedicated and passionate board members, all united by a vision to drive real change for domestic violence survivors across Australia.

A Pathway to Justice
At WJL, our mission is simple yet powerful: to ensure that survivors of domestic violence have access to proper legal representation, regardless of their financial situation.
Through our work, we strive to:
✽ Reduce Financial Burden of legal proceedings.
✽ Provide top-tier legal representation to those who need it most.
✽ Advocate for legislative reform, ensuring that laws protect survivors and recognise issues like coercive control.
✽ Collaborate with partners to offer comprehensive support services, from housing to counselling referrals.
✽ Educate survivors, giving them the knowledge and tools to navigate the legal system with confidence.
