Our Vision

To support people and those around them so that everyone develops in accordance with their aspirations.

Our Mission

Vilavi’s mission is to contribute to the autonomy of people and to social progress (1).


Our Commitment 

Vilavi is a non-profit organization that has been working with vulnerable people since 1989. Its programs are designed to help people regain their autonomy.

Vilavi provides services to adult men and women with drug, alcohol and drug problems, those experiencing chronic or episodic homelessness and since 2016 is active with young people and young adults with autism spectrum disorder.
The activities are aimed primarily at residents of the Montreal Metropolitan Community usually called Greater Montreal.

The Terrebonne Addiction Treatment Center is certified by the Centre Intégré de Santé et Services Sociaux de Lanaudière. It has been certified since 2002. In order to meet the needs of those people, Vilavi provides additional services to homeless people or at-risk of homelessness through housing with community support and it is now developing a Quebec Bill of Rights to ensure specific development in this prospect. 
Vilavi Quebec is incorporated since January 11 2008, under the Law on Quebec Companies, Part III (L.R.Q., chap. C-38, art. 218).

Vilavi’s objective is the autonomy of the individual.

(1) According to Vilavi, social progress refers to a « Fair and inclusive social development aimed at the global well-being of people and communities », without however defining a binding application that would be inconsistent with the very nuanced nature of each person and community. According to Wikipedia, there is a link between the improvement of living conditions and changes in social organization, which suggests that an organization like Vilavi can take concrete action to generate social progress (Wikipedia 2021, “ Social progress is the search for an improvement in the living conditions of human beings through a change in social organization.
