Refugee Advocacy Support Opportunity - Earn a Service Learning Credit and a House Point

Digital letter writing and petition for the Refugee Council of Australia's 'No Child Left Behind', campaign to ensure adequate support is provided for people in this situation. COVID-19 does not discriminate, and neither should access to a safety net or assistance during this time. We are in this together and there must be support for all who need it, regardless of visa status. https://www.refugeecouncil.org.au/no-child-left-behind/
