La fondation de la Fédération, en 1907, marque les débuts d’un mouvement maternaliste de Canadiennes françaises. Au Québec, lors du premier tiers du XXe siècle, cet organisme catholique mène divers combats féministes, dont la réforme du Code civil, le suffrage féminin et l’accès aux études supérieures. Il favorise par son action l’engagement des femmes laïques dans les secteurs caritatifs et sociaux, jusque-là chasse-gardée des communautés religieuses et de l’Église. Tant par son militantisme que par son œuvre sociale, la Fédération a contribué à l’avancement de la cause des femmes et au mieux-être de la société.

During the first third of the 20th century, this Catholic organization led various feminist campaigns in Quebec, including those for reform of the Civil Code, women’s suffrage, and access to higher education. It encouraged the involvement of laywomen in philanthropic and social sectors previously the exclusive domain of religious communities and the Church. Through its activism and social initiatives, the Fédération contributed to the general advancement of women and the welfare of society as a whole.
