Video interview with Louise Glanville, CEO Victoria Legal Aid
"This is a role that accords with my values, that means I can commit to doing something that I think is very much in the public good.”
- Louise Glanville, CEO Victoria Legal Aid
Louise Glanville took over as Managing Director of Victoria Legal Aid last October. She is the first woman to head up the VLA, after a distinguished career as a public sector leader in agencies including the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation, and the State and Federal Governments.
Our Director Rob Hulls recently caught up with Louise Glanville in our video interview series for students. She told Rob about how her qualifications in both Social Work and the Law have informed her approach to multidisciplinary practice, and why legal aid is a fundamental part of the justice system.
