In 1989, the Philippine Australian Council in Support of Filipino Women was established as a response to the growing number of Filipino women migrating to Australia. Its main purpose was to help these women in their settlement process.
In 1995, the name was changed to Philippine Australian Community Services Inc (PACSI) to reflect the composition of Filipinos migrating to Australia under family stream migration. From then till now, PACSI continues to provide support and assistance to newly arrived and long-term Filipino migrants in Australia.
The Philippine-Australian Community Services Inc (PACSI) works for the rights and welfare of Filipino migrants in Australia. We believe that by facilitating their access to information, resources and social networks, PACSI contributes to their empowerment. Thus, Filipino migrants can contribute more significantly to Australian society as they continue to embrace and practice Filipino culture and values.
PACSI is a membership-based organisation. We invite our target groups to join and also become active volunteers in the organisation. Volunteering is an excellent way to meet new friends, gain knowledge and new skills from others and an opportunity to expand ones support network.
