About The Federation of British Columbia Writers
| The Federation of BC Writers is a not-for-profit organization established in 1976 to contribute to a supportive environment for writing in the province. The day-to-day operations of the Federation are overseen by Executive Director Fernanda Viveiros and office assistant Barbara Coleman in the Vancouver office. Members of our Board of Directors, elected annually at its AGM (held in late spring), serve on one or more of the many committees that help carry out the FED's programs. Federation members serve on the WordWorks editorial board, update website pages, organize events and staff booths at literary events throughout the province. We continue to expand our services and new programs will be developed in the year ahead to better serve the needs of our diverse writing community. |
