Communities for Children (CfC)

Communities for Children (CfC) in Launceston and Tamar Valley Tasmania

Anglicare Tasmania is a proud facilitating partner of the Communities for Children (CfC) initiative in Launceston and the Tamar Valley.

CfC is based on a national social movement insisting that a positive future is the birth right of every child, not just the fortunate few.

By working together, all children in Launceston and the Tamar Valley can be:

  • loved and safe
  • healthy
  • participating
  • learning
  • have material basics
  • grow up with a positive sense of culture and identity.
