The Community Justice Group (CJG) provides support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people within the criminal justice system.
The program allocates funding to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organizations to develop strategies within their communities for dealing with justice-related issues and to decrease Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ contact with the justice system.
The program allows members of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and organizations to work cooperatively with Magistrates, Police, Corrective Services personnel and staff from other government agencies. The program is an important part of the Queensland Governments response to the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody recommendations.
North West Queensland Indigenous Catholic Social Services acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we provide our services and their connections to Land, Water and Community. We pay our respect to their Elders, past, present and emerging. We also extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people that live within the areas we operate. We recognise the contributions of all Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in working together to develop an enriched appreciation of cultural heritage we have here in Australia – A country which we all share and live in together.
