The Autumn 2026 issue of The Record shares stories of faith in action as the St Vincent de Paul Society advocates for a fairer Australia on cost of living, housing, energy, child poverty, refugee justice and human rights, grounded in Catholic Social Teaching and what Members see daily. It explores proposed Capital Gains Tax discount reform, calling for revenue currently benefiting high‑income earners to be redirected into social and affordable housing and rent relief. It also highlights Vinnies shop innovations, our volunteers, new leaders, international connections through the Overseas Partnerships Program – and more.
