Nos chantiers | CDL Chomedey

OUR PROJECTS

COMMUNICATION PROJECT

The “Communication” project is supported by the CDLC team, in collaboration with all the members and partners, because it is transversal to any other project of the neighborhood plan.

It includes both action strategies related to citizens (example: popularize information) and objectives related to partners (example: strengthening and implementing collective communication mechanisms).

Here is the action plan specific to the "Communication" project:

Communications

MOBILIZATION PROJECT

The “Mobilization” project is supported by the CDLC's Mobilization Agent, in close collaboration with citizens who get involved and participate in various citizen mobilization projects. In addition, several organizations and partners are involved in many projects, such as:

Project "Inter-amitié Chomedey"; creating citizen participation activities for everyone in the population: families, seniors and youth, through various themes and types of diversified activities. This project is supported by funding from the city of Laval, the CISSSL and the "ministère de l’immigration, de la francisation et intégration". It began in July 2020.

Mobilisation

CONTINUUM OF SERVICES PROJECT

The "Continuum of services" project is updated by several approaches and projects related to the objectives of the project:

Recreation Committee - Chomedey sector: Bureau de vie de quartier, CLDC, Center du Sablon and Loisirs Chomedey.
Approach for the Val-Martin sector (densification/housing and a Simonne-Monet-Chartrand community center): strategic committees (OMHL, City, CCVM, Au panier, CISSSL), operational committees (field workers OMHL, CCVM, CDLC, Au panier , CSSL), conducting a needs study (2021).
In the context of a pandemic, support for the deployment of the COVID-19 Awareness Brigades Project.

The partners and the CDLC team will also support regional initiatives related to the continuum of services in Laval, local-regional collaboration links, etc. For example:

Various work units of the Laval Regional Policy, including objective 3.2.1 comprehensive support for vulnerable people/immigrant population.
Participation in meetings between local agents in Laval

EDUCATIONAL SUCCESS PROJECT

The “Educational Success” project aims to work with young people aged 0 to 25, their parents and the community. This is why 2 action committees are updating the action plan for this project; Le Petit Chomedey committee and Chomedey Youth 11-25 years old committee.

Committee "Le Petit Chomedey" 0-11 years and family

Mission: Contribute through joint projects that mobilize several community partners towards establishing winning conditions for toddlers and their families, to promote their well-being and overall development.

History: The committee stems from the will of members of the Local Development Committee of Chomedey to have an action plan dedicated to the needs of toddlers and their families. Thus, a local group of partners (RLP) named "Le Petit Chomedey" was set up in 2012, and supported by Avenir Enfants until 2020. It made possible the financing of numerous collective projects and supported services for families, always in addition to the services already offered by the various organizations.

Carole Charvet, General Manager, Carrefour d'Intercultures de Laval

LOCAL DEVELOPMENT AND PARTNERSHIP PROJECT

The “Local Development and Partnership” project is supported by the CDLC Board of Directors, with the Coordinator (Marlène Paradis), because many of it's objectives are of a strategic order ,and are related to regional representation procedures.

This project also addresses the questions of work of positive influence that the CDLC wishes to have on the development of the district, as well as the reflections on the mechanisms of collaboration between the current and potential partners in local development.
