Our Mission

We Are a Community

There are hundreds of men and women in Melbourne who are experiencing homelessness, who find themselves disconnected and confused and looking for a safe place and help to access services. St Mary’s House of Welcome works with people who are in real need, to help them connect back into the community.

Inspired by the spirit of the Daughters of Charity, St Mary’s House of Welcome seeks to further social justice by standing with people who are disadvantaged offering support, solutions and hope.
