The Vancouver Committee for Domestic Workers and Caregivers Rights (CDWCR) is a community-based nonprofit organization established in 1992, dedicated to assisting foreign care workers in improving their employment conditions and immigration status. Advocating for the recognition and respect of the valuable services provided by these workers, CDWCR aims to secure landed status for foreign care workers and their families upon arrival in Canada.

CDWCR also plays a vital role in educating and supporting foreign workers regarding their rights under the Temporary Foreign Worker Protection Act, while promoting fair treatment and work-life balance through established employment standards. The organization hosts various workshops and events focused on immigration updates, financial literacy, and health and wellness to empower caregivers and enhance their integration into Canadian society.
