Wellness Brigade Program
In collaboration with Peter McGill, Chez Doris offers women enriching opportunities to get involved in community projects, to develop skills and to improve their financial well-being. A part-time facilitator coordinates these activities, enabling participants to gain experience while receiving compensation in the form of gift cards.
A real impact in the neighbourhood
Over of the last year, the women helped with neighbourhood beautification, notably through the clean-up and refreshment of Cabot Square and planting flowers in public spaces. This work strengthened their pride and sense of belonging, all while having a positive impact on the community as a whole.

“Working in the garden did me a lot of good. Watching the plants grow gave me a sense of purpose and pride. It changes everything to feel that you truly matter.”
