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.
