“The Newfoundland and Labrador Women’s Commission is mandated to represent and promote the voices of women within the Liberal Party of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Liberal Party of Canada. We assist and encourage the active participation and election of women candidates at all levels of the Party, and ensure that federal and provincial policies and legislation do not discriminate against women and their families” says Ms. Campbell.
"As President of the Newfoundland and Labrador Women’s Liberal Commission, I am given the constitutional authority to appoint up to 13 women to serve on the executive board. I want to communicate this opportunity to as many women in our province as possible.”

Each Club may carry out their own fundraising activities and develop local policy resolutions relating to women and their families for submission to both the Liberal Party of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Liberal Party of Canada.
