For this end of the year, we’re mobilizing for an essential organization: L’Arrêt-SourceL’Arrêt-Source is a shelter for young women aged 18 to 35 who are victims of violence.
Located in Montreal, L’Arrêt-Source has been welcoming women from both within the sector and across Quebec.

– group accommodation (9 places)
