Looking Ahead

As we commence this new fiscal year, we remain optimistic and hopeful about the prospects and opportunities ahead. Our Human Rights in Action partnership with the Native Women’s Association of Canada, Strength in Sisterhood and Womyn 4 Justice holds great promise for a wonderfully innovative and interactive partnership with our the Regional Advocates, front-line prison workers, prisoners and coalition partners.

Our interventions in individual women’s cases and several key appeals related to principles of justice and fairness before the courts, as well as inquests into deaths in custody provide additional opportunities to further the interests of marginalized, criminalized, and imprisoned women and girls.

The burgeoning nature of our international work and reputation can only further enhance the ability of our entire organization to fulfill our mandate and achieve our aims.

Thank you to all of the membership who work diligently in communities across our country to ensure that the association continues to meet the needs of the women and girls with, and on behalf of whom, we exist. Your contributions are many and too often you do not receive the appreciation deserved as you continue in sisterhood and solidarity to struggle for just and fair treatment for all.
