Once again in order to commemorate the International Human Rights day, the Greater Moncton Human Rights Committee (GMHRC) came together and volunteered to give a helping hand to a local soup kitchen with serving members of the community in need with lunch.  The members spent a few hours at Karing kitchen helping out with the preparation and serving of meals as well as provided Karing Kitchen with a monetary donation.  « Its a very fulfilling experience sad but that's the reality for those in need of a hot meal.» Farid Tourkmani, chair of the GMHRC.

When the Greater Moncton Human Rights (GMHR) committee was looking for a different way to recruit and engage members, they decided to open a contest to reach out to more PSAC members.  After partnering with the Moncton Inspire Festival, an international non-profit street arts festival, and finding some PSAC members who had talent, they were ready to create their project.  First, the contest was asking members to answer a question by submitting, images, pictures, texts, poems, etc.  The question was:   What does equity groups within the PSAC means to you?

On November 4th, 2019 - the PSAC Greater Moncton Regional Women's Committee is having their Annual General Meeting (AGM).  See poster for information.
