Our Policy
Policy Statement
It
is the policy of the C4W to be inclusive, to provide a safe
environment in which women of any race or persuasion feel free
to express their views, discuss their concerns and find answers
to the questions their lives pose to them. It is with this in
mind that the Board of Directors and Staff believe that the
C4W should not issue policy statements endorsing any one particular
political or social issue.
Such
endorsements would in effect negate the purpose for which the
C4W was founded: to provide any woman, regardless of race, political
or religious affiliation, or sexual orientation, with services that will enable her to fulfill her
greatest human potential
in accordance with her own personal belief system.
As
a result, it is the C4W’s policy to offer the broadest range of
services possible in accordance only with sound fiscal practices.
The
C4W does believe, however, that advocacy in the form of disseminating
information on issues women face is also part of its mission
and it is its policy to strive to ensure that the information
the C4W provides is accurate and reflects the views, to the
greatest extent possible, of the women it serves. |
