Anglicare Tasmania submission to Tasmanian State Budget 2020-21

Anglicare Tasmania’s budget priorities have come from recent research and consultations with disadvantaged and vulnerable Tasmanians and the Anglicare staff who work with them to deliver positive futures.

We believe the State Government can make sound investments in the Tasmanian people and strengthen Tasmanian communities by prioritising:

• Systems and services that support and provide care for children, young people and families to assist them to overcome barriers in their lives and participate in developing their own positive futures;
• Affordable and appropriate housing that provides a secure and stable base for Tasmanian families to flourish; and
• Improvements to alcohol and other drug services.
