CAEFS PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

Organizational restructuring to accommodate the regionalization of CAEFS was a priority this year. Thanks to the financial assistance provided by the Correctional Service of Canada, the CAEFS membership was able to plan for and begin the process of structural as well as functional regionalization of our network.

As the new prisons open in each of the regions, the Elizabeth Fry societies in the regions will be ready to work with and for the federally sentenced women who are moved into their communities. As noted earlier, this move will see more regional involvement of the local societies in both individual assistance and systemic educational and advocacy efforts with and on behalf of women in prison.
