Suomalainen naisliitto (Hfrs), is a non-profit Finnish women's organization which was established in 1907.[1]

Suomalainen naisliitto was founded in 1907 by Lucina Hagman. Hagman as well as other leading members, such as Maikki Friberg and Tekla Hultin, were affiliated with the Young Finnish Party.

The Hfrs promoted women's emancipation by arranging courses and leactures. Until the 1940s, it published its own magazine, the Naisten Ääni; Maikki Friberg was its editor in 1907–1927.

The Suomalainen naisliitto publishes the magazine Minna since 1981.
