Today at JNC we celebrate World Day of Social Justice. This was an original value of JNC and has remained one for nearly 50 years. From our day-to-day services to our strategic plan, social justice underpins all we do at JNC. Join us today in celebrating #worlddayofsocialjustice
Jan 26, for First Nations People, is not a day of celebration but a day of mourning. It marks the beginning of over two hundred years of suffering, inequality, genocide, and mourning. We recognise this inequality and misjustice and stand behind #ChangetheDate.
We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday break! JNC's Maroubra office and phone line is officially open again. Feel free to give us a ring or pop in from today. Our Bondi Junction centre will reopen on January 9th 2023 🥳
