Spotlight On HIV AIDS Legal Centre (HALC)

The HIV AIDS Legal Centre (HALC) is a not-for-profit, specialist community legal centre, and the only one of its kind in Australia.

They tackle the severe stigma and discrimination associated with HIV by providing specialist services to vulnerable people living with HIV and viral Hepatitis in Australia. They provide free and comprehensive legal assistance (within operational guidelines) to people in NSW with HIV or Hepatitis-related legal matters.

HALC also provides volunteer placements for law students, particularly those undertaking their practical legal training (PLT) requirement prior to admission as a legal practitioner.
