Since the 1930s the Brotherhood of St Laurence has been working for an Australia free of poverty through its research, services and advocacy. The Brotherhood campaigns for change to break the cycle of poverty and develops forward-looking programs for disadvantaged people, which are often then adopted by other community organisations and governments.
Our aim is to address unmet needs in innovative ways and translate our learning from research and services into new policies, new programs and practices which can be implemented by government and others.
Based in Melbourne, but with a national profile, the Brotherhood continues to work for an Australia free of poverty.
