Patro Le Prevost

Patro Le Prevost is a community centre which had been deeply rooted in the Villeray neighbourhood for almost 100 years. It provides an educational living environment for children, youth, adults and families residing in Villeray and surrounding neighbourhoods. Over the years, the agency has created many innovative community programs and recreational activities to promote development among people of all ages. These include a Magasin-Partage, group activities for women, a fall prevention program for seniors, a space for teenagers, collective kitchens, buying groups, a meals-on-wheels, an income tax clinic, homework assistance and much more.

Patro Le Prevost exercises strong leadership in its community, working in cooperation with local partners and participating in several local, regional and provincial social development committees. It is a leader in the research and deliberation on how to better serve the East Island population.

Centraide of Greater Montreal has supported Patro Le Prevost since 1974.
