About Us

Hobart City Mission (HCM) has been serving the people of Southern Tasmania for 170 years. This has only been made possible through the generosity of our supporters and volunteers.

Established in 1852, HCM was the first City Mission in Australia and is the third oldest Mission in the world. HCM offers assistance to those who need it most in the Southern Tasmanian community by providing emotional, physical and financial support and guidance.

We pride ourselves on finding innovative programs and services that empower people and enable them to participate in community life with a sense of dignity, purpose and self-reliance.

Our Christian heritage has guided our values since 1852. As we grow with our community, our faith-based values guide us in welcoming people from all backgrounds.

Hobart City Mission, through our values and practices acknowledge the sovereignty of Tasmanian Aboriginals, the original owners of lutruwita (Tasmania). Tasmanians represent many cultures, social and economic backgrounds, all abilities, genders, sexualities and stages of life.  We see strength in them all and embrace this diversity. Hobart City Mission understand that to truly meet diverse needs, we must model diversity, inclusion and healthy relationships at every level of our organisation, and we are committed to doing so.
