OUR HONORARY SPONSOR
“I don’t have any specific recollections about my first encounter with Parrainage Civique Montréal. It was on a Saturday in spring, and I had been invited to play a game of improv with some mentally disabled people. Sponsors, families, volunteers, a happily supercharged atmosphere, and the promise to return the following year. That was a long time ago, and I am still here. For that dose of humanity, brotherhood, and exchange.
Thank you for all these beautiful years, Parrainage Civique Montréal.”
- Chantal Lamarre, honorary sponsor of Parrainage Civique Montréal
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES
Intellectual disabilities are “characterized by significant impediments to intellectual functioning and adaptive behaviour which are manifested in conceptual (language, reading, writing, health, and security), social (interpersonal abilities, responsibilities, self-esteem, gullibility, and naivety), and practical (personal care, work, autonomy, and domestic skills) abilities. This incapacity appears before the age of 18.”
(Schalock et al. 2010/2011, p.1)
