SWOT Analysis of Anglicare Australia

Analysis of Strengths

Anglicare being an organization of social welfare in Western Australia means they have a

number of strengths due to their specialization in service delivery to all individuals regardless of

age. Some of these services include foster care, community development, housing, employment,

and family based relationship services. Its strengths lie within these services they offer. These

services include aged care, youth services, disaster services, and disability services etc. The work

of Anglicare Australia is considered non-discriminatory making it a complete inclusive

organization. comprehension and structure of its services and organization are also among its

strengths. Working in a community providing care without discrimination places it at the

forefront and is accepted by all since they spread the message of care. Anglicare being a social

organization eliminates the factor of competition from other agencies across Australia.

Anglicare programs help individuals get to their feet and reducing social problems and stigmas,

which is what the society needs for its development.

Analysis of Weaknesses

Weaknesses of Anglicare Australia are from some of its key aspects such as its volunteers

and operations shops. If they do not focus on improving these aspects, they could be at the verge

of being overshadowed by other social welfare organizations. Another weakness of Anglicare

Australia is the fact that they do not have specific programs for women and children who have

faced abuse. This social welfare organization is present in developed countries, which means

they have not expanded its services to under-developed and developing countries where their

services are required most.


Analysis of Opportunities

Since Anglicare has not developed programs that cover women and children that have

faced abuse, they have an opportunity to design these programs that will be beneficial to victims

of abuse. Their absence in developing in developing and under-developed regions also presents

them an opportunity for them to extend its services to those regions. Most services offered by

Anglicare are most needed in developing and under-developed regions which presents an

opportunity for this organization. Some regions do not have programs for the disabled and

unemployed, which are services offered by Anglicare presenting them an opportunity to provide

these services in these regions.

Analysis of Threats

Anglicare could be faced by threats from aspects such as lack of funding and access to

volunteers who are core to running the operations of the organization. Anglicare is a social

welfare organization hence the threat of competition from similar organizations is not

considerable. Access to skilled staff is also a problem. Providing best services is what Anglicare

have to do for them to create a better reputation which can be done by skilled staff who are able

to provide collaborate and patient-centered care for to clients.

Recommendations

From the SWOT analysis of Anglicare, some recommendation for the organization include;

Expand its services to developing and under-developed nations where its services could

be needed most. Anglicare has also not considered providing services to children and women

who are victims of abuse, where it is recommendation that they consider offering these services

that will make them a total inclusive social welfare organization in the face of the community. It
is also a recommendation that they design programs for the disabled and unemployed in some

regions where these services are not available that will eliminate aspects of social stigma among

individuals that will in turn spread its message of care more. It is also recommended that

Anglicare employs skilled staff that have the capabilities to deal with clients this organization

deals with. Funding and volunteers is what this organization needs most, which is why they

should focus on creating better relations with the government and community for them to acquire

these resources.
