Anglicare Australia’s 10th State of the Family report – In from the Edge states,
2010 has been a year in which care for others – inside or outside our immediate communities – seems to have faded from view. The five essays of In from the edge look at some of the barriers leading to social exclusion. They also point to what we need to do if we care to break those barriers down.
Each year Anti-Poverty Week draws our attention to the history and circumstances of people living in poverty. In that context, the first essay – Trouble rarely travels alone by Jo Flanagan from Anglicare Tasmania – talks to the lived experience of poverty within our mostly affluent society.
