Anglicare, the urban mission and welfare arm of the Sydney Anglican Church, has been making Christ's love real to people in need for nearly 150 years.

Each year, Anglicare reaches out to over 400,000 people, bringing Christian care and support to those struggling with poverty, disability, illness and despair.

Anglicare services include emergency relief for families in crisis; foster care and adoption for abused children and those with special needs; counselling and support for children and youth with disabilities; migrant services; aged care through both nursing homes and community services; opportunity shops providing low-cost clothing; emergency services in times of disaster and chaplains in hospitals, prisons, mental health facilities and juvenile justice institutions.

The Diocesan Services Division provides a range of services to Anglicare and to the Diocese, often by way of consultancy in specialised fields. Within the context of the Mission of Anglicare and the Sydney Diocese Mission Strategy, the Division exists to encourage, serve, resource and represent the Church in gospel ministries to people in the community.
