It carries out consulting mandates for CSPCs and the clinical management of the FDJ. Mobilized in the development of a movement of researchers and students committed to CSP, and with a research posture rooted in the values of the approach, The CSPI builds bridges between the university research community and the clinical teams of the CSPCs.
Since 2009, the Garage à musique has been deploying a unique program for learning and practicing music with young people in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve area. Combined with the practice of community social pediatrics and school follow-up adapted to the child’s needs, this program aims to reduce the risk factors leading to juvenile crime and gang membership. The Garage à musique engages social pediatrics workers, volunteers, school network partners, families and the community. They all work together to offer young people a stimulating and safe environment that is conducive to the growth and development of their full potential.
The evaluation of the Garage à musique program aims to highlight the key aspects of its implementation for the three components of the program (musical learning, follow-up in the social pediatrics clinic and support for school-based learning).
More specifically, the research project makes it possible to describe:
• The clientele (youth and their families) and their participation in the project
• The activities and resources (material, human and organizational) required
• Satisfaction with the project
• Challenges and lessons learned
