! Emergency homelessness fund allocated by Centraide

Created in spring 2025, this $8.5-million grant for Quebec comes from the Secrétariat à
l’action communautaire autonome et aux initiatives sociales (SACAIS) as part of the Fonds
québécois d’initiatives sociales (FQIS) of the Ministère de l’Emploi et de la Solidarité sociale.
This amount was increased with a $990,000 investment from Centraide of Greater Montreal
to support agencies in its territory.
Thanks to the agility of the Centraide network, these funds were given out in a record time so
that agencies could quickly meet urgent needs. This money will let the most active agencies in
the area of homelessness fund developmental projects over a two-year period to help people
in this situation.
