The CWRC is a non-profit organization funded by the United Way of Calgary and Area, the Alberta Law Foundation, and through individual, corporate, and union donations. We help Calgarians understand and access what they are entitled to as workers.

We assist workers with filling out forms, attending meetings/hearings, and talking with employers and government agencies in order to help them access their employment related benefits and rights.
