Changes to how neo-liberal governments fund community-based organizations are said to diminish autonomy and result in the state harnessing the energy of the voluntary sector to meet a state/market agenda. This study considers the possibilities for community-based advocacy groups to achieve social justice within neo-liberalism. The case study method is used to examine the experiences of the Gander Women's Centre, a community-based feminist organization, in Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador. The issues faced by this group to retain autonomy and political relevancy are considered through a critical political economy framework. The findings suggest that the framework can help to inform and expand how organizations may respond to the changing relationship between the voluntary sector and the state.
