A copy of the policy is available on the PSAC website at www.psacunion.ca/family-care-policy.

On-site childcare is intended to remove a barrier to participation at the Conference and is provided only for those who could not otherwise attend, had the service not been available. Requests must be received no later than Monday January 30, 2023.
