História biográfica

Helen Breslauer was a sociologist, researcher and consultant who was closely involved with the status of women committees of the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations (OCUFA), the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT), and the Ontario New Democratic Party. Breslauer was from the Unites States, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from Antioch College (Yellow Springs, Ohio) in 1965, and Master's degrees in Arts in 1967 and Philosophy in 1969, both at Rutgers University (New Jersey).

From 1970 to 1977, she worked in the Department of Sociology at the University of Toronto, initially as a lecturer and then as an assistant professor starting in 1971. While at the University of Toronto, she did research on co-operative housing in collaboration with University of Toronto Geography professor Howard F. Andrews. In 1978, she completed her Ph.D in Sociology at Rutgers University.

Breslauer became the Senior Research Officer at OCUFA in 1979 and worked there until 1995. She was involved in the creation of OCUFA's Status of Women Committee and served as a support person for the Committee for 10 years. In 1981, Breslauer became OCUFA's representative on CAUT's newly-reformed Status of Women Committee, a role she would also hold until 1995.

In 1988, she started a consulting practice (Helen J. Breslauer & Associates) and worked part-time as a consultant on women's issues in relation to universities, education and work. Upon leaving OCUFA in 1995, Breslauer began working as a consultant full-time. In 2000, she was elected president of the Status of Women Committee of the Ontario New Democratic Party, a position she held until 2003.

----------

Sociologue, chercheuse et consultante, Helen Breslauer a été étroitement associée aux comités sur la condition féminine de la confédération ontarienne des associations de professeurs d'université (OCUFA), de l'association canadienne des professeures et professeurs d'université (ACPPU) et du nouveau parti démocratique de l'Ontario. Breslauer était originaire des États-Unis, où elle a obtenu un baccalauréat en sociologie à Antioch College (Yellow Springs, Ohio) en 1965, ainsi qu'une maîtrise en arts en 1967 et une maîtrise en philosophie en 1969, toutes deux à l'université Rutgers (New Jersey).

De 1970 à 1977, elle a travaillé au département de sociologie de l'université de Toronto, d'abord en tant que maître de conférences, puis en tant que professeur adjoint à partir de 1971. Pendant son séjour à l'université de Toronto, elle a mené des recherches sur les coopératives d'habitation en collaboration avec Howard F. Andrews, professeur de géographie à l'université de Toronto. En 1978, elle a obtenu son doctorat en sociologie à l'université Rutgers.

Breslauer est devenue chargée de recherche principale à l'OCUFA en 1979 et y a travaillé jusqu'en 1995. Elle a participé à la création du comité de la condition féminine de l'OCUFA et a servi de personne de soutien pour le Comité pendant 10 ans. En 1981, Breslauer est devenue la représentante de l'OCUFA au sein du comité de la condition féminine de l'ACPPU, nouvellement réformé, un rôle qu'elle a occupé jusqu'en 1995.

À partir de 1988, elle a créé un cabinet de conseil (Helen J. Breslauer & Associates) et a travaillé à temps partiel en tant que consultante sur les questions relatives aux femmes dans les domaines de l'université, de l'éducation et du travail. Après avoir quitté l'OCUFA en 1995, Breslauer a commencé à travailler comme consultante à plein temps. En 2000, elle a été élue présidente du comité de la condition féminine du nouveau parti démocratique de l'Ontario, une poste qu'elle a occupé jusqu'en 2003.

Organização

The fonds consists of four separate accruals over ten years. Boxes 1 to 15 represent documents from the last accrual, ACC-2013-2, which consisted mainly of documents from Breslauer's home office which she used for her consultancy. Boxes 15 and 16 represent the second accrual, ACC-2003-10, which consisted mainly of documents from women's NGOs. Boxes 17 to 26 represent the first accrual, ACC-2003-5, which consisted mainly of the CAUT Status of Women Committee papers. Finally, boxes 26 to 28 represent accrual ACC-2011-3, which consisted of various ephemera from women's NGOs, and documents from SWAAC, the Ontario NDP Status of Women Committee and some of Breslauer's files from her research work at OCUFA.

When first accessioned, the fonds was intended to be named after the donor, Helen Breslauer. Likely due to the large amount of documents from the CAUT Status of Women Committee, the fonds was instead named "Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) Status of Women Committee". Subsequent donations by Breslauer in 2011 and 2013 contained a great deal of other material related to the women's movement and university instructors, which was also added to the same fonds. As a result of the actual diversity of materials in the fonds, it was renamed to the Helen J. Breslauer fonds in 2023, when it was processed.
