Scope and content
The national level of the organization representing Japanese Canadians. This organization originally formed under the title of Japanese Canadian Citizens Association, changing their name to NAJC in 1980. They are the primary organization in Canada representing the community.
Records created and collected by the National Association of Japanese Canadians. These records include meeting minutes of the executive committee, and other records created by other chapters across the country. Though there are some records that focus on the Redress movement, much of the series represent the work of the organization after the Redress agreement.
