What is the role of a citizen partner?
Citizen partners:
- Take on projects with teams made up of citizens, community partners and professionals from the health and social services network.
- Make a real difference, relay concerns expressed by the population.
- Share their views and opinions: their voice is as important as that of CIUSSS partners and professionals.
Specific examples of projects:
- Organizing social activities (with youth) in CHSLDs to enhance the residents’ living environment.
- Giving your opinion on fighting the taboos and stigma around mental health.
- Organizing activities to reduce social isolation in seniors.
