Uniting Vic.Tas is a civic and social organization operating in Victoria and Tasmania, formed by the merging of 21 UnitingCare agencies and Wesley Mission Victoria to provide community-oriented services. Based in Melbourne, the group employs a sizeable workforce and delivers a broad mix of programs and services—about 770 in total—that aim to support vulnerable groups, including children and families, people experiencing homelessness, those dealing with addiction or mental illness, individuals with disabilities, and older adults seeking independence. The organization focuses on strengthening communities and promoting social inclusion by offering access to training, employment opportunities, and resources that help people lead healthier, more autonomous lives, while also welcoming newcomers to the community. Recent developments highlight partnerships and community initiatives, such as collaboration with Wellington Shire Council on a family-focused event and continued efforts to address family violence and cyberbullying within the Hume region, reflecting its ongoing role in local service delivery and community engagement.
