Advocating for Meaningful Change
Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive.
For 50 years, Anglicare WA has advocated for a better, fairer Western Australia by challenging the systems and structures that prevent people from living safe, stable and hopeful lives.
Through collaboration, research, campaigning and innovative solutions, we influence social policy, shift public narratives and engage decision‑makers on the issues that shape people’s lives. Guided by community voices and grounded in lived experience, our advocacy is built on justice, dignity and inclusion.
“We exist to help people achieve positive things in their lives. Often the barriers people face are not personal failings, they’re structural pressures and our role is to walk alongside them.”
Mark Glasson, CEO, Anglicare WA
Advocacy Priorities
Through our advocacy, we are committed to creating economic justice and fairness, ensuring everyone has a home, seeking freedom from family and domestic violence and abuse, and supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander recognition and justice through the principles of truth-telling, listening, healing, and valuing Culture.
Research and Reports
Anglicare WA is dedicated to driving positive outcomes for individuals, families, and communities across Western Australia.
By teaming up with leading researchers and institutions, we ensure that our services are informed by the latest evidence and best practices. High quality research helps us to develop innovative solutions and contribute to policy changes that address the root causes of disadvantage, such as housing stress, family violence, mental health and poverty.
Through this work, we aim to create lasting change and build a fairer, more supportive society where everyone can thrive.

Across Australia, powerful campaigns are driving change to end poverty, homelessness, inequality and injustice. However, it takes many voices, from many directions, to bring about social and policy change.
