Comité régional des femmes francophones de la RCN

The CRFF-RCN is a dynamic group of women in the National Capital Region, who come from various locals and Components.

The region is home to two regional women’s committees.  The CRFF-RCN operates solely in French and the ORWC-NCR entirely in English. Both RWCs encourage all women members of PSAC to participate, whether they live or work on the Ontario or the Quebec side.

The main objectives of the CRFF-RCN are to promote and defend the rights of women and to combat all forms of violence, discrimination, marginalization or exclusion facing women.  The basis of operation of the CRFF-RCN is predicated on the feminist process based on the principle of equality.  This process emphasizes the sharing of goals, authority responsibilities, and accountability.  The Committee practices this method of operation, which aims to be more inclusive and values diversity – two values which members seek to convey within their union and across all sectors, both private and public.

The CRFF-RCN aims to achieve equality between men and women in all spheres of society and works toward the establishment of conditions that makes it possible to achieve this objective. The CRFF-RCN assumes a collective leadership role in order to respond to societal issues confronting women.

The CRFF-RCN is a non-partisan, education and political action organization, whose role is to critique, apply pressure, promote cooperation and mobilize.

CRFF meetings are held regularly via Zoom and are conducted in French. Meeting announcements will be posted here on the PSAC NCR website. PSAC members who are francophone and francophile women in the National Capital Region are welcome to attend.
