The QFHSA’s Resolutions for 2023
Each year, the QFHSA’s committees follow the latest developments in Quebec education and provincial and federal politics—developments that will affect our parents and our community. The committees then develop resolutions to address the issues of the day.
This year’s resolutions were presented at the QFHSA’s 79th Annual General Meeting on Thursday, June 1. Find out what the QFHSA and its member associations are concerned about by reading this year’s eight resolutions.
