Historique
The Canadian Congress of Women (CCW) began during the 1950s as a venue for women to express concerns regarding peace issues, children's rights, poverty, and discrimination. Although the organization later became more politicized, it retained its focus on Canadian women and their role in creating a freer and more peaceful world. The Regina Chapter of the CCW was incorporated in 1950. During its history, the Chapter actively supported better child care and reproductive rights in Saskatchewan. It also advocated celebrating International Children' s Day (June 1) and International Women's Day (March 8).
