Don't let people disappear in a broken system.

The Asylum Seekers Centre is often the only safety net for people seeking asylum who disappear through the cracks of a system failing them time and time again.

Times are tough for many around the world, and people seeking safety in Australia face increasingly hostile rhetoric, heartbreaking racism, and a broken system. They spend years in limbo waiting for a resolution on their application for protection, all while living without a safety net – no Centrelink, no housing support, no childcare subsidy, limited work rights, and fluctuating Medicare access.

But the ASC has been hit by rising costs, increasing demands for support, and a system withdrawing more support year on year. We’re fighting for people seeking asylum while fighting for our own survival.

We need your support to ensure the safety net does not break under increasing pressure.
