Melbourne Citymission

For 155 years, Melbourne Citymission has worked with disadvantaged people across Melbourne and Victoria. Every week we help thousands of people build a clear pathway out of disadvantage, economic exclusion and social isolation.

Our services support:

  • people to find a pathway out of homelessness
  • disabled people to get the resources and support they need to live the life they want
  • people to break the cycle of poverty and abuse
  • people to find jobs, or enter into education and training.
