Day Centres and Community Support
This is a listing of places where someone struggling with mental illness can go for workshops, help with work reintegration, communal meals, or for socializing. Please explore the list below.
Please note: AMI-Quebec helps families cope with mental health problems and illnesses in a loved one. We have support groups but we are not a day centre and we do not provide such services. Please contact the organizations below for help.
