Working with children and families to build better tomorrows

Every child has the right to be safe and happy. We are single-minded in our mission to create positive change and support them towards a better future. 

Anglicare Victoria works for families, children and young people. We understand their challenges and every day we see their strength. We know that with the right support, people can achieve their goals. For some this means keeping the family together in tough times. For others it’s as straightforward as finding a way to pay the bills.

We work with them to find solutions for children in need, create opportunities for young people and support families to stay together.

With your support, we improved the lives of over 30,000 Victorians

For people like Kelly* and her son, who endured years of family violence perpetrated by her husband, our holistic range of services are life-saving.

Our Family Services provide women like Kelly with the practical support they need to break free from violence and stay safe. This can include organising emergency and ongoing accommodation, along with help to cover the costs of relocation like food, furniture and moving costs.


As survivors begin to heal and rebuild their lives, our supportive programs help them on the road to recovery.
