Uniting Vic.Tas

People are important and change is possible. In standing with those who live life at the margins, by strengthening our communities and by speaking out, we will create a more just society. We are 7000 people working in partnerships to deliver 770 programs and services that positively impact people's lives and enrich communities. We empower children, young people and families to learn and thrive. We're there for people experiencing homelessness, drug and alcohol addiction or mental illness. We support people with disability to live the life they choose. We assist older people to maintain their independence and enjoy life. We provide opportunities to access training and meaningful employment. We're proud to welcome and support people newly arrived to our community. We work to empower people with the information, skills and tools they need to live a healthy, happy life. Uniting in Victoria and Tasmania is an organisation founded through the joining of 21 UnitingCare agencies and Wesley Mission Victoria. In coming together as a a single organisation we make a deep and lasting commitment to continue providing necessary, valuable and relevant services to the communities we work alongside.
