Quebecor funds three new day centres for people with autism in Québec
The Autiste & Majeur Foundation, a valued partner of Quebecor, has announced plans for three new Espaces Autiste & Majeur—Québecor. The facilities will be located at the Société de l'Autisme Région Lanaudière in Notre-Dame-des-Prairies, Les Horizons Ouvert in Shawinigan and Espace Vie TSA in Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures.
This initiative is part of a series of projects made possible by Quebecor’s landmark $1-million donation in 2021 to support the development of day centres for people with autism aged over 21.
The three new Espaces Québecor will join the one at Giant Steps in Montréal which opened in 2023, further expanding the network of adapted environments for adults with autism across Québec.
Quebecor is proud to contribute to the creation of the Espace Québecor centres, essential resources that provide vital support to adults with autism and their families.
