What guides us

Our values

Our social project

Our ambitions

Beyond its cultural and economic activities, the Salon International Africain du Canada also carries a deeply human mission: contributing to the well-being of our communities.

It is in this spirit that we are working to create a Respite Centre for autistic children. This place is meant to be a safe, caring and inclusive space, where autistic children can benefit from activities adapted to their needs, supervised by specialized professionals.

The centre will also offer valuable support to families, allowing them to have moments of respite while being assured that their children are developing in a respectful, stimulating and growth-promoting environment.

Our ambition is to build a lasting project that combines solidarity, inclusion and social innovation, in order to meet a real and growing need in our community.

We believe that every child deserves to flourish fully and that every family should be able to count on accessible support resources.
