We work to bring equality and opportunity to Australian communities, advocating nationally on issues

We represent Baptist community service organisations and their clients in the national policy debate.

A core principle in our work is to make sure that the interests and voices of marginalised people are heard when decisions are made that affect them. Our vision is a nation of hope-filled, purposeful people, building communities where every voice is heard. Our advocacy work seeks to help realise this aspiration.
