Dunn Street founder and Community Organiser Stephen Donnelly was joined by the Senior Policy & Advocacy Advisor for Vacro, Abigail Lewis. 

Abigail discusses her journey into policy advocacy, breaks down the current challenges with the Victorian justice system, and how organisations like Varco are championing new ideas towards building a justice system that is equitable and yields better outcomes for our society. 

Vacro is one of Victoria’s oldest community organizations and the state's only specialist criminal justice reintegration service. Find out how you can get involved to improve people’s lives: https://www.vacro.org.au/
