Our Mission     

Our Harbour provides a caring, cost-effective long-term housing program on Montreal’s South Shore for people of diverse backgrounds living with mental illness. We offer life-management support, links with resources in the surrounding community and individual assistance in integrating with society at large. Our Harbour also educates the wider community about mental illness.

Our support offers residents

• friendly visits

• regular social contacts

• targeted workshops

• assistance in contacting medical, welfare and social service agencies

• referrals to other social agencies

• help to build basic skills such as budgeting, organizing meals, etc.

• individual and group activities

Our Harbour’s co-founder and current Board Chair Catherine Gillbert tells why she remains so committed to the Our Harbour way in the following video.
