Site could be of interest as a potential resource for special needs in Quebec
A site / group of interest that was recently noted is www.laccompagnateur.org.
This site appears to be an attempt to catalogue a significant portion of special needs services and interested parties in Quebec. They have even gone so far as to sort the listings by region, and do an English translation of the information, which is greatly appreciated.
Somehow though, they managed to put this whole thing together without mentioning REACH School, the only English-language public school for kids with intellectual disabilities in the Greater Montreal Region. Obviously Reach is located on the South Shore, in St. Lambert, and serves surrounding communities and most of the Monteregie.*
It isn't readily apparent whether the site continues to be active.
While we're at it, we might as well mention the "Monteregie Handicapped Portal", another website resource listing, in French only. This one doesn't list schools or school districts - but it is listed on the sidebar as it does target the South Shore Montreal area, and includes a good list of associations.
* April 8/2012 In the meantime, I have been in touch with the good people at the laccompagnateur site and they have promised to include REACH School and some of our other links in a future update of their site, so that is great news. It bears mentioning that they are a group of parents who have done all this on a volunteer basis, so kudos and best of luck to them in their endeavours in our common cause!
