What is this appeal for?

The Northern Migrant Resource Centre's mission is to offer services and programs designed to assist migrants, refugees and asylum seekers to fully participate, and successfully settle in, Australia. The NMRC was initially established in 1984 to provide settlement services in Melbourne's northern metropolitan region, however, it has now expanded into four major task areas to help achieve its mission:

Four Major Task Areas

Immigration advice, Settlement orientation, information and family strengthening services for newly arrived migrants and refugees
Intensive Employment assistance programs
Aged and Disability Services for members of ethnic communities preferring to access ethno-specific and multicultural services
