About the Woman’s Centre of Montreal
As many of you know, as a federal member since 1973, the Women’s Centre of Montreal has been an advocate for guiding women on the path to personal and professional independence. Our advocacy is focused on responding to the practical services they need in real time. Our history of helping women and their families can be reviewed on our webpage. We help women help themselves!
The Centre’s team, made up of 50 employees and interns and more than 250 volunteers, responded to over 12,000 requests for assistance in 2025-2026. Over 250,000 people were indirectly reached through virtual presentations at tradeshows and teaching institutions, the publication of articles and communications on the Centre’s website and social networks.
Our direct hands-on service covers diverse areas of expertise:
