About

It provides support, training, advocacy, and sector development to its member agencies, while also delivering direct services and community programs, including administering grants, to vulnerable Victorians.
Tips for Applicants
As a peak body primarily supporting its member organizations and delivering direct services, CISVIC does not have widely advertised open grant programs for external applications. Potential applicants, particularly community organizations in Victoria, may benefit from becoming a member or inquiring about specific project partnerships rather than seeking general grants.
Giving Philosophy
CISVIC's giving philosophy centers on strengthening the capacity of its member agencies and supporting vulnerable Victorians through a combination of direct service delivery, advocacy, and community programs. They disburse grants as part of specific projects or to support their network, aiming to address social disadvantage and promote community well-being.
