Carers Australia is the national peak body representing those Australians who provide unpaid care and support to family members and friends with a disability, mental illness or disorder, chronic condition, terminal illness or who are frail. Carers Australia works with a network of carers associations in each state and territory to improve the lives of carers. Together, they provide important services like counselling, advice, and education and training. They also promote the recognition and needs of carers to governments, businesses and the wider public.

Carers Australia believes all carers, regardless of their cultural and linguistic differences, age, disability, religion, socioeconomic status, gender identification and geographical location should have the same rights, choices and opportunities as other Australians. They should be able to enjoy optimum health, social and economic wellbeing and participate in family, social and community life, employment and education.
