The faces behind MWCN. 💙

Looking around this year's AGM, one thing stood out—our team has grown significantly over the past year.

As MWCN continues to expand its programs, services, and outreach across Montérégie West, so has the incredible group of people working behind the scenes to support our communities. From new initiatives to strengthened partnerships, every team member brings unique skills, passion, and dedication to the work we do.

We're proud of how far we've come and even more excited about what's ahead. Together, we're building stronger connections, creating new opportunities, and making a meaningful impact throughout the region.

Here's to another year of collaboration, growth, and community. 💙

Mental health starts with understanding. 💚

We're proud to see the Portrait Jeunes et santé mentale now available in English, helping ensure the voices and experiences of English-speaking youth are represented in conversations about youth mental health across Quebec.

Thank you to CHSSN and Mouvement Jeunes et santé mentale for this important collaboration and for creating a valuable resource that supports organizations, professionals, and communities working with youth.

We encourage our partners and community members to explore this resource and join the conversation.

Last spring, our partner Mouvement Jeunes et santé mentale launched the results of their Portrait Jeunes et santé mentale.

CHSSN was proud to mobilize and participate in focus groups with community interveners and youth-serving organizations, sharing insights on the mental health realities and needs of young English-speaking communities.

Thanks to this collaboration, the Portrait is now also available in English — an important step in ensuring that the experiences of English‑speaking youth are reflected in this provincial conversation.

We warmly invite all partners to explore it here: https://mouvementjeunessm.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/ENG-Cahier-thematique-7-In-Short_compressed.pdf

Want a hardcopy? Feel free to reach out — we’d be happy to share it with you while quantities last.

Ensemble pour la santé mentale des jeunes : le Portrait maintenant disponible en anglais

Au printemps dernier, notre partenaire Mouvement Jeunes et santé mentale a lancé les résultats de son Portrait Jeunes et santé mentale.

Le CHSSN a été fier de mobiliser et de participer à des groupes de discussion réunissant des intervenant·e·s communautaires et des organisations œuvrant auprès des jeunes, en partageant nos observations sur les réalités et les besoins en santé mentale des jeunes d’expression anglaise.

Grâce à cette collaboration, le Portrait est maintenant également disponible en anglais — une étape importante pour s’assurer que les expériences des jeunes d'expression anglaise soient reflétées dans cette conversation provinciale.

Nous invitons chaleureusement tous les partenaires à le consulter ici :

Every new school journey begins with a little confidence—and a strong community behind it. 💙📚

MWCN was proud to collaborate with MEPEC and our community partners on this wonderful initiative to support children and families transitioning into Kindergarten (K4/K5) and high school.

From Transition Bags filled with practical essentials to parent resource folders, this project was designed to help students feel prepared, confident, and excited for the year ahead.

Congratulations to MEPEC and all of the organizations involved for making a positive difference in the lives of local families. Together, we're helping every child start their next chapter with confidence. 🌟
