‘Tis the season! Team members from the Youths at Risk program at the Côte-des-Neiges and Métro CLSCs brought some holiday joy to young people over the holidays. On December 5, they wrapped about 200 Christmas presents destined for families at the Côte-des-Neiges Black Community Association Christmas party.
The gesture is meant to help the teams forge ties with community groups and support youth and families in the CIUSSS West-Central Montreal territory.
