Support and Recognition of Saint-Laurent Organizations

Last updated November 15, 2022

In order to ensure an objective, equitable and strategic distribution of its financial, human and material resources so as to support an offer of services that is in line with its mission, Saint-Laurent’s Administration adopted a Policy on Support and Recognition of Saint-Laurent Organizations

Context

Revised in November 2022, this policy is intended to be a user-friendly reference tool that contributes toward regularly updating municipal actions in the areas of culture, sports, recreation, social and community development.

It establishes criteria that enable Arrondissement de Saint-Laurent to better work with its partner organizations by identifying mechanisms to make it easier to issue official recognition for organizations whose activities are in keeping with the guidelines of the Direction de la culture, des sports, des loisirs et du développement social (DCSLDS) and whose offer of services meets Saint-Laurent residents’ needs.

Accreditation for 2023-2025

The accreditation process takes place every three years. The deadline for social, community and sports organizations to submit applications for accreditation for 2023 to 2025 is now open until January 20, 2023.

Saint-Laurent Council can accredit an organization whose activities are in line with the mission and guidelines of the DCSLDS and whose offer of services meets Saint-Laurent residents’ needs. Arrondissement de Saint-Laurent can then offer accredited organizations support and expertise, logistical support as well as the use of its facilities, either free of charge or at a preferential rate. In some cases, financial support for the mission may also be granted.

Interested social, community and sports organizations are invited to consult the Policy mentioned below in order to ensure that their application for accreditation meets the eligibility requirements. Please note that organizations from other Montréal boroughs that are also active on Saint-Laurent territory may submit an application if they meet the eligibility requirements. To receive the application form for accreditation, please contact the persons below.
