A free morning tea and media event to discuss PeakCare’s recent open letter to Queensland parliament on proposed new youth justice laws

PeakCare Queensland and Youth Advocacy Centre (YAC) present Media conference on open letter to Queensland parliament on youth justice matters 

PeakCare Members, Supporters and media contacts may already be aware of the full-page open letter to the Queensland Parliament published in the Courier Mail on Saturday, 28th January.

The letter contains the logos of over 40 organisations plus the names of 20 individuals who are, in effect, the signatories to the letter. Seeing all of those logos and names on the one page is an impressive sight and provides a powerful message.
