The Trustee For The Salvation Army (Vic) Social Work

Since 1880, The Salvation Army (TSA) in Australia has had a significant history of working and advocating for the rights and needs of disadvantaged people in our community without discrimination.

Consistent with the values of human dignity, justice, hope, compassion and community, The Salvation Army is committed to the promotion of social justice and the protection of the rights of disadvantaged and marginalised people.

The Salvation Army employs more than 120,000 people worldwide and has an established reputation of working with individuals and families who, due to life experiences and events, have been impacted by poverty and deprived of opportunities and activities considered part of everyday Australian life.

The Salvation Army can be found in city streets, on rural farms and in suburban centres. Our people are on the ground day and night, bringing HOPE to those who need it most.

The Salvation Army also supports Australian communities with financial counselling, financial capability and financial literacy education, and microfinance programs for nearly 30 years. Our counselling programs support people experiencing financial difficulties, by addressing their immediate crisis and working towards long-term financial competency and resilience.
