JUSTICE FOR ASYLUM SEEKERS - A BETTER WAY 

Justice for Asylum Seekers (JAS) is a network of around 30 Church, welfare and community-based groups, based in Victoria with some national representation also. In March, JAS released a public information document: The Better Way - Refugees, Detention and Australians. The document reveals that there are viable alternatives to the current arrangements which are achievable, responsible, affordable and, most importantly, humane.
The Better Way is available from the Melbourne Catholic Commission for Justice, Development and Peace (03) 9926 5710 or may be downloaded in pdf format from the : ACSJC website
The Edmund Rice Network was well represented at the recent Palm Sunday March in Melbourne in support of refugees with Brothers, Staff and students from a number of schools and volunteers from the Edmund Rice Centre at St Albans represented.
