Mission Australia's nationwide services help combat homelessness, provide housing, assist struggling families and children, address mental health issues, fight substance dependencies, support people with disability and more.

We support mums and dads to be the very best parents they can be. We run playgroups, literacy and financial education programs, and other activities that help families – including grandparents and other carers – feel well supported and a part of a community.

Our services also work with families to help them deal with those challenges that can tear people apart, such as problem gambling, domestic violence, drug and alcohol issues and long-term unemployment.

We strengthen communities by listening to people and communities and equipping them to transform themselves. Using a place-based approach, we seek to enable people, families and communities to be more engaged, connected and resilient.

About our children & families services
All children deserve a happy, healthy start to life. Mission Australia helps families provide the security, care and support that are so vital to a child’s development. At the heart of our work is early intervention and prevention, which means we address issues before they become major setbacks for families. We support mums and dads to be the very best parents they can be.

We run playgroups, pre-schools, family day care, literacy and financial education programs and other activities that help families – including grandparents and other carers – to feel they are part of a community.

Our children and family services work with families in the community to help them deal with challenges that can de-stabilise families, such as problem gambling, domestic violence, drug and alcohol issues and long-term unemployment.

We are committed to the safety of all children and young people.
