Our priorities

Food security

Access to fresh and affordable food is limited. The southern West Island can be considered a food desert, meaning that very few residents live within a 500 meter radius of amenities that offer fresh fruits and vegetables.

Housing

Very little affordable and adequate rental housing can be found in the southern West Island and there are many obstacles to the local development of more affordable housing.

Poverty reduction & social inclusion

In general, the population of the southern West Island is considered well-off from a socioeconomic point of view. But at the same time, hidden poverty exists in concentrated pockets across the region.

Health & social services

With only 58 doctors per 100,000 inhabitants compared to 85 per 100,000 in Montreal, accessibility to first line health services is a constant challenge in the West Island. Specialized services are also lacking.

Transportation

Traveling within the West Island and into Montreal almost always involves spending a long time in public transportation or being stuck in traffic. Active transportation options are also limited.

“Give people good information and effective tools and they will work together to create the kind of communities they want.”

Current projects
Pointe-Claire Project

The Pointe-Claire Project is a pilot project that aims to improve access, both physically and economically, to fresh fruits and vegetables in the West Island. The city of Pointe-Claire, and more specifically the residents who live in the heart of the city, are the focus of this project. The project is funded by the Mesure 1.2 and 13.1 – Programme de soutien à l’accès aux fruits et aux légumes à Montréal 2018-2022, from the Direction Régionale de Santé Publique (DRSP).

Read the latest report.

Community Housing Toolbox

The purpose of the Community Housing Toolbox is to put tools in the hands of community members who want to develop affordable, accessible and sustainable community housing in the West Island.

Consult the project page for more information.

Together for a more inclusive southern West Island

Together for a more inclusive southern West Island is a project that aims to improve the participation of people of immigrant origin and ethnocultural minorities in the collective life of our southern West Island community.

Learn more about the project.

Housing For All

Housing for All is a project that facilitated and empowered the West Island community to create innovative affordable housing solutions that are suitable for the regional context. Residents and local stakeholders shared their knowledge of the current problems, which stimulated brainstorming, and lead them to co-create solutions for more diverse housing opportunities.
