MIGRANT SERVICES

Integrating
The Salvation Army operates migrant and refugee assistance programs in each state. These offer a range of different programs including financial and material aid, language classes, counselling, personal support, legal aid and access to mainstream community networks.

It should be noted that these programs are under increasing pressure due to changes in income support and other assistance from the Commonwealth Government. Many women awaiting refugee status are presenting for accommodation in our women's refuges and shelters.

The acceptance of The Salvation Army's programs by migrants is evident through the growing number of migrants who maintain contact with The Salvation Army. In some cases they have established Salvation Army churches, worshipping in their language of origin. Their involvement in the life of The Salvation Army reinforces our internationalism.
