All are welcome to our programs (keeping in mind some are for a particular audience only). We are working on making our programs more accessible. Here’s how:

• If you have mobility issues, all our online content is available to you. As for our in-person events, our office (for workshops and counselling) is wheelchair accessible.
• If you are Deaf or hard of hearing, Google Meet (which we use for workshops, support groups, and counselling) generates closed captions.
• We are not dependent on a whole lot of visual aids in our programs, so if you have trouble seeing, or trouble being in front of a screen for a long time, you will get a lot out of our programs by just listening and/or talking.
• If you do not have access to the internet, it is possible to join our support groups by regular telephone. Our support groups are held via Google Meet, so give us a call at 514-486-1448 during regular business hours (9am-5pm) to ask about being added to our telephone list.
• We hold some programs in person and some online. We aim for a balance between the two so that we can best accommodate as many people as possible.
• Our in-person workshops are held in an enclosed space so please keep in mind that distancing may not be possible. Masks will be provided for people who wish to wear one.

It is enough of a challenge to be a family caregiver or someone living with a mental illness. You shouldn’t have to also worry about accessibility to services. We are a small team, so we do what we can, but we are always looking to improve! If you have any ideas or comments, email info@amiquebec.org.
