The Racially Visible
Action Committee (RVAC) is made up of visible minority Public
Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) members who have come together
to focus on the elimination of racism and to ensure a system
free from discrimination as well as one that is committed to
fairness and mutual respect.
Background of RVAC
The RVAC began with an idea in November, 1989
in the National Capital Region and became a formal organization
by February, 1990, conducting special events to raise awareness
about racism. In 1991, a similar group was formed in Toronto
and later, in Calgary
Participation
Participation in the
RVAC is open to all visible minority members of the Public Service
Alliance. The Committee meets on the third Thursday of each month
at 5:45 p.m. at 15 Holland Avenue.
