About Anglicare NSW South, NSW West & ACT
As the social justice arm of the Anglican Church, Anglicare’s mission is to tackle disadvantage, helping children and families break free from the cycle of poverty.
Our work focuses on helping children, young people and families who are homeless or in crisis. We do this through our Survive and Thrive approach.
We also support parents to make sure their children are school ready, and stay engaged with school and post-school training.
The Survive and Thrive approach addresses both short term and long term needs.
•The Survive component meets immediate, critical needs through services like emergency food relief and crisis accommodation. •These services are often an entry point from which people can be directed to further services and assistance.
•The Thrive component meets longer term social, emotional, spiritual and educational needs to break the cycle of poverty.
These services focus on children and young people in the context of their families to help them avoid returning to crisis.
We want to see a reduction in the number of children needing to enter the Care and Protection system through early intervention services that strengthen family relationships.
