Supporting your family’s well-being in Montréal
Key points
A free, personalized support service for immigrant families in Montréal, particularly in East Montréal and Pointe-aux-Trembles.
Family Integration helps improve family communication, navigate changes related to immigration, and strengthen daily well-being, based on each family’s needs.
Supporting families through the integration process
The Family Integration service supports immigrant families facing challenges related to settlement and adaptation to life in Québec.
Through a human, community-based approach, families receive support to better understand their living environment, strengthen family relationships, and prevent isolation or vulnerability.
A human and personalized approach
Each family experiences integration at its own pace. Support is tailored to each family’s situation, priorities, and reality.
AIEM staff meet with families over time to encourage healthy communication, ease tensions linked to major life changes, and support the overall well-being of all family members.

- Individual psychosocial support services
- French language courses and francization activities
- Community drop-in childcare
- Family activities, cultural outings, and information sessions
