Welcome to ADSVIC

The Asbestos Diseases Society of Victoria is a volunteer run, registered not-for-profit organisation which provides peer based support for people who have been diagnosed with an asbestos related disease, their carers, families and friends, and bereaved carers, families and friends. We also provide community education and advocacy campaigns with the aim of preventing future asbestos exposure and illness.

We aim to be a caring, respected and effective organisation that:

• Supports those already exposed to asbestos, with a particular focus on those suffering from an asbestos-related disease and their families
• Raises community awareness of the dangers of asbestos exposure
• Works to prevent exposure of the community to asbestos
• Advocates for and supports medical research into the early detection and treatment of asbestos-related diseases
• Works with other groups, government, and corporations in relation to asbestos issues
