The Centre Des Jeunes Boyce Viau (CJBV) in Montréal, Canada, was established in 1993 to support adolescents, but later shifted its focus to children aged 6-12 due to challenges in reaching teenagers. Located in the heart of a housing complex, CJBV provides education, animation, support, and referral services to disadvantaged youth and their families in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve neighborhood.
With a mission to enhance the quality of life for young people and families by promoting self-empowerment and breaking social isolation, CJBV offers a range of activities and interventions for children and adolescents, including group and individual sessions tailored to each individual's abilities and strengths. Through initiatives like the "Au Cœur du HLM" project, CJBV aims to engage the community and foster a sense of ownership and responsibility among its residents.
