Ever since Laval\u2019s health and social services organization (CSSS Laval) launched a new guide to their services last month, they\u2019ve been getting more requests to collaborate with local community groups. <\/p>\n

\u201cPeople seem to understand better how they can work with us,\u201d said Chantal Goyette, acting head of CSSS\u2019s clinical projects and community group unit. \u201cIn the past, we worked in groups serving specific clientele like seniors or children, so it was difficult to respond to requests to participate in transversal projects that could combat poverty or improve housing, nutrition or transportation.\u201d <\/p>\n

Goyette says that new kinds of requests began showing up soon after the formal launch of the guide on the 18th of last month. Some proposal ideas even appeared on evaluation forms the ministry distributed to representatives of more than a hundred community groups who attended the launch.<\/p>\n

\n
\n\u201cFor example, there\u2019s a group of citizens who are working to protect certain woodlands and they\u2019ve approached us with a project,\u201d said Goyette. \u201cOthers didn\u2019t know that we could help them solve internal issues within their own organizations. We can help with strategic planning, fundraising, governance, even text evaluations.\u201d <\/p>\n

Goyette credits the 45-page guide released at the launch for the new collaborative enthusiasm, but community members say the launch itself may be partly responsible for the new openness. They say the launch was an unusual opportunity for more than 140 people from community groups across Laval to meet each other and CSSS community organizers they didn\u2019t know. <\/p>\n

Many community groups who offer services in English, for example, already know each other and CSSS organizer Richard Allaire through Network Partnership Initiative (NPI Laval) meetings. The launch gave them a chance to meet other potential partners. <\/p>\n

\u201cOften an organization is in contact with one specific organizer, and they don\u2019t have a sense of others who might be available to work with them,\u201d said Myl\u00e8ne Fauvel, one of the launch attendees. Fauvel works for the Corporation de d\u00e9veloppement communautaire<\/i> (CDC) Laval, a group that links 95 community groups into a non-profit marketing entity. \u201cMany CSSS organizers were at the launch explaining to all of us what they can do. That gave us ideas for future collaborations.\u201d <\/p>\n

Fauvel describes the guide itself as a secondary benefit of the experience, primarily because it compiles information in writing that otherwise would be only implicitly understood. \u201cIn future, if there is a particular situation, we can verify what the CSSS position is and what we might count on them for. It also reassures us that our role will be respected.\u201d <\/p>\n

For Goyette, and 23 other CSSS Laval employees who spent about a year and a half compiling the guide, the document itself is a source of pride. \u201cWe discussed every section with a consultant from the L\u2019universit\u00e9 de Quebec \u00e0 Outaouais<\/i> who pushed us to be precise about what we wanted to accomplish and how that work could be completed,\u201d she said. \u201cBy the end of the process, we firmly decided we all wanted to work together.\u201d <\/p>\n

As of our deadline, the guide, which is called the Cadre de r\u00e9f\u00e9rence des organisateurs communautaires<\/i> wasn\u2019t yet available on the CSSS Laval website<\/a>. Goyette says it will be there soon.<\/div>\n
