OLO Program
To qualify for the OLO Program (which stands for œuf, lait, orange), you must:
- be pregnant;
- live in a low-income situation.
Follow-ups are provided by OLO staff (nutritionists, nurses or social workers).
- Education on the link between the mother's diet and the baby's health
- Information about healthy eating habits
- Delivery of OLO foods (vouchers) and prenatal multivitamin supplements
The first step to accessing the OLO program is to register your pregnancy on the Ma Grossesse platform. A staff member from your region will contact you to evaluate your needs and offer services that would benefit you and your baby.
For more information on the OLO follow-up care, contact your local CLSC.
SIPPE Program
The SIPPE (Integrated Perinatal and Early Childhood Services) Program is for expectant mothers and new mothers who, in addition to living below the low-income threshold, have not finished high school.
The program aims to:
- Foster child development in a supportive environment to prepare the child for school.
- Optimize the health and wellness potential of families and improve their living conditions.
Follow-up is carried out by a multidisciplinary team (nurse, social worker, nutritionist, psychoeducator, family auxiliary), at the CLSC, at home or in the community.
Follow-up starts during pregnancy and continues until the child enters kindergarten.
The first step to accessing the SIPPE program is to register your pregnancy on the Ma Grossesse platform. A staff member from your region will contact you to evaluate your needs and offer services that would benefit you and your baby.
