🌟 Celebrating Achievement at the National ASID Conference! 🌟

We are incredibly proud of Eddie, who recently presented at the National ASID (Australian Society for Intellectual Disability) Conference as part of the federally funded ILC project, “Living My Life.”

In his presentation, Eddie shared powerful insights on Supported Decision Making and its vital role in reducing restrictive practices. His voice, lived experience, and leadership remind us how important it is to empower people with disability to make choices about their own lives.

✨ This is true inclusion in action — led by the people whose voices matter most.
Congratulations, Eddie! Your courage and advocacy are creating meaningful change and inspiring others across the sector.

Our organisation is deeply saddened by the recent passing of Mirella Mancini.

Mirella was a dedicated volunteer on our Management Committee for over five years and also served as a coordinator for one year. For more than two decades, she continued to support our work as a committed financial member.

Her generosity, kindness, and unwavering dedication have left a lasting imprint on our community. The lives she touched, the people she helped, and the spirit she brought to her work will never be forgotten.

We are profoundly grateful for all that she contributed to the organisation. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones during this difficult time.

With heartfelt condolences.

To all those Mickey Mouse lovers out there!

Yesterday the staff of ANFE Community Care celebrated Mickey’s 97th birthday as part of their regular staff gathering.

Mickey provided an inspirational theme to enable us to look at fostering a positive, innovative and collaborative work environment.

By embracing Mickey’s lessons in life, we can see the magic of our organisation in cultivating our workplace as a cheerful and productive environment, encouraging innovation while fostering a culture of continuous learning and adaptation.

Throughout his adventures he has shown the importance of relationships.

This concept shows us the importance of a collaborative and harmonious workplace.

He exemplifies a positive outlook even in challenging situations. His ability to bounce back from setbacks with renewed enthusiasm is something our workforce aims to aspire to.

Mickey acts as a guide, showing team members the importance of a supportive work environment where everyone feels valued.

Who we are, where we’re going

ANFE Community Care was established in Adelaide in 1961 as Associazione Nazionale Famiglie degli Emigrati Inc. by Cavaliere Ufficiale Antonio Giordano AM, and was the first committee independent of the Italian Consulate or Australian Government to provide language and employment support to newly-arriving Italians.

ANFE received its first Australian Department of Immigration grant in the late 1980s, and soon after developed a pilot project to support young people living with intellectual disabilities and their carers, titled ‘Da Noi’, meaning ‘With Us’.

As the needs of its clients changed, so did ANFE’s mission.
