Improving Women’s Health
Body-Mind-Spirit

The Women’s Health Research Foundation of Canada, Inc. (WHRFC) has been active since the early 1980s and is dedicated to the improvement of women and gender-diverse people’s health in its broadest terms: social, psychological, and physical well being.

 

Our Goals

Education — encourage government, public, and health professionals interactions to raise awareness of health issues faced by Canadian women and gender-diverse people, the lack of financial support from traditional sources, and the need for additional research.

Advocacy — for inclusion of women in research and attention to the analysis of studies by gender and diversity.

Research sponsorship — funding post graduate research dedicated to the improvement of women and gender-diverse people’s health.
