Maison St-Dominique (MSD) is a non-profit organization established in 1987. We offer affordable housing to single, economically disavantaged women and men who wish to be independant, but need help in order to reach this goal.

Therefore, MSD offers housing AND psychosocial support. These services are part of the lease and cannot be separated.

MSD can be considered as a tool in promoting one=s autonomy. Usually, this process has already begun when a person is admitted at MSD. Each person must be able to attend to his minimal, basic daily needs: self-care, meals, medication, appartment, etc.

Our councillors are present from Monday to Friday between 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. In case of emergency, they may be reached by cell phone.

Presently, MSD accomodates 75 residents in 4 residences. Three of these residences are co-ed and the fourth is available to women only.
We offer private rooms with shared bathrooms and kitchens; studios with kitchenette and bathroom included; small appartments are found only in the residence for women. All but one residence has a community room available to residents.

For admission, people may contact MSD on their own or they may be referred by someone else.

MSD promotes the participation and collaboration of each resident.
