Following the last meeting of the Multifaith Advisory Group (MAG) on 3 July 2013, please find attached information from the Salvation Army, the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, AMES and the Red Cross about how Faith Communities can support community-based asylum seekers (pdf)

Specifically, the table attached includes links to education and information resources on asylum seeker issues, as well as emergency relief needs including how to drop food and material aid items off, as well as volunteer opportunities in each organisation.
