Governance

"Let's analyze your needs within our democratic governance framework to build your solutions."

CASFI is a legally constituted non-profit organization in Canada on November 6, 2025. It operates according to principles of transparency, democracy and collective responsibility, in perfect consistency with its mission of welcoming, supporting and assisting immigrant families in Ottawa and the region.

CASFI is led by an Executive Board composed of four key positions—president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer—whose members are elected at the annual general meeting. These roles are filled by committed individuals, subject to the approval of active members, and dedicated to the good governance of the organization.
