Guest Speakers
- Janik Fortin, Director of Projects and Development, Société de Développement Social (SDS)
Since 2008, the SDS has established initiatives to combat homelessness and social exclusion by involving the business and community sectors in a search for appropriate, sustainable solutions. This collaboration enables us to support individuals in precarious situations, to engage the community and to raise the profile of community organizations.
The SDS is actively committed to finding solutions to homelessness and social exclusion by forging links and setting up innovative projects that engage the business world.
- Michèle Chappaz, General Manager, Mouvement pour mettre fin à l’itinérance à Montréal (MMFIM)
The Mouvement informs, brings together and mobilizes various milieus around concrete measures it proposes, so that everyone can contribute to implementing solutions to growing homelessness. The Mouvement will be presenting its major achievements, as well as an awareness campaign currently underway to get the business community involved. Indeed, when business and community organizations join forces, we can make a big difference.
