Description

Established in 1993, ASC is an independent, not-for-profit, non-government organisation providing a welcoming environment and practical front-line support (including case management and health care) to community-based asylum seekers residing in NSW. Over 90% of our clients hold bridging visas which render them work, Medicare and Centrelink ineligible.

ASC has a small team of salaried staff (currently 4.5 full-time equivalents), supported by a network of volunteers who contribute to our operations in a variety of ways, including through provision of pro bono professional services, tuition, catering and both practical and emotional client support.
