St Mary’s in Exile Supports Asylum Seekers and Refugees
St Mary’s in Exile campaigns for a compassionate and humane policy for asylum seekers and refugees. The endless human stories of hardship caused by the policies of both major political parties is heartbreaking. Families divided, hopelessness of detainees, deportations to persecution and for many, probable death, is a blight on all Australians.
The St Mary’s in Exile aims to advocate for a ‘fair go’ for asylum seekers and refugees, provide asylum seekers and refugees with hospitality and support, inform the St Mary’s in Exile Community and the wider community about the range of issues facing asylum seekers and refugees in Australia and around the world, work in conjunction with other like organisations.
