Programs and Services
Through these programs, we aim to achieve our mission:
"To enable every child to develop to their full potential."
Through these programs, we place at the center of our support, the child, the family, and all the actors revolving around the child, by relying on the strengths of each one.
We always develop our programs in consultation with all the actors in the community in order to propose a varied, concerted and coherent service offer and to act as early as possible, in the first years of a child’s life. Quality partnerships are a major asset in promoting the early detection of children.
An interdisciplinary approach
Community social pediatrics is an interdisciplinary and intersectoral approach that brings together the expertise of medicine, law and social work in one place. This way, we identify, reduce or eliminate stressors that affect the development of children from vulnerable backgrounds.
Who is the CPSC - Les Petits Renards of Verdun for?
Children who first meet the following criterias:
- Verdun Residents
- 0 to 14 years of age
