A haven of peace

Summer camp and respites

The summer camp and the respites offer a judicious mixture of games, discovery and friendship. We promote the integral development of the young people and adults that we host by offering them programming that is varied, structured and safe.

For people with disabilities, the Centre aims it programs at people who are aged 4 years old or more, with hearing impairment, language deficiency, intellectual disability, multi-disability or a Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

  • It was with great pleasure that I would find my son at his bus stop in the evening and he emerged every time with a huge smile on his face. He made new friends, discovered new sports and spent hours outdoors and it all did him the greatest good.

IT’S TIME TO REGISTER!

The Centre Notre-Dame-de-Fatima offers weekend respite stays, available from September to June, with different staff-to-participant ratios adapted to individual needs (1:4, 1:2, or 1:1). A few spots are still available this fall for children with a 1:4 ratio.

These specialized stays are offered to children, teens, and adults living with a hearing, speech, or intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), or multiple disabilities.

 

Registration

Before booking, a file opening process and an evaluation meeting are required to determine the appropriate staff-to-participant ratio. We strongly recommend starting the process a few months in advance.

The winter respite calendar will be available in mid-December.

Each stay includes:

Support services
Safe and comfortable accommodation
Balanced and varied meals
A seasonal activity program

Administrative steps for all new applications

1-Complete the Registration and Health Form to open a file. Return everything by email to inscription@mon-camp.ca with a photo of the camper.

2-Attend an evaluation meeting to assess the camper’s needs. Once the file is open, parents or guardians will receive an email to schedule an appointment with the Assistant Director of Specialized Programs. This meeting allows a tour of the facilities with the parent (or resource) and the camper, as well as answers to any questions about respite stays and camps. The current waiting time for an appointment is about 5 to 6 weeks.

3-Once the meeting is completed and the support ratio determined, your email will be added to our mailing list for the registration calendar according to the desired program.

4-For financial assistance based on family income, you must provide the Revenu Québec Notice of Assessment (line 199) of both parents (if applicable) and complete the Financial Assistance Form.

5-Book your stay(s) with the Sales Coordinator at 514-453-7600 ext. 234 or inscription@mon-camp.ca. Act quickly when registrations open, as spots fill up very fast.
