About Midlas

Midlas is a not for profit community organisation, with Public Benevolent Institution, and Deductible Gift Recipient status (this means we are a registered charity and any donation to us over $2 is tax deductible). We are also accredited as a community legal centre with the National Association of Community Legal Centres.

Midlas offers holistic, wrap-around support for eligible clients, including disability advocacy, financial counselling and well-being, tenant advocacy, legal services and community engagement initiatives.

Midlas is governed by an elected Board of Management. The Chief Executive Officer, Gaelle Gouillou, oversees the day-to-day management of Midlas and works together with staff members, directors  and volunteers to provide clients with a quality client centred service.

Midlas acknowledges that we are working on the traditional lands of the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, spiritual beliefs and relationship to land and waters. We extend this respect to other Aboriginal Language Groups and other First Nations.
