What is an Advocate?

An Advocate is a support person for La Trobe uni students who will empower you to work with the Uni to find a solution. Advocates are employed by the Student Union, not the uni. 

Advocates will:

• Listen to you
• Not judge you
• Be respectful
• Always maintain privacy and confidentiality
• Inform you of your rights and responsibilities
• Explain the Uni's rules and processes
