CJSN is not legal advice, but does involve linking the person with legal advice and assisting them to understand it. Police support is available between 9am and 10pm 7 days a week. Offers training to existing support networks especially in regions or communities not reached by the volunteer network. Provides information, training and resource materials about supporting people with intellectual disability in the criminal justice system.
