Our story

Our organization was born out of an urgent need for respite, caregiving and emergency support for families living with a child or children with an intellectual disability or PDD.

The situation inspired us, and continues to motivate us, to act in order to improve the daily lives of families. Here you will find an overview of Répit le Zéphyr and all those who have been involved in one way or another in the success of Répit le Zéphyr since its foundation in 2001. Please see our annual reports for more information.

Mission

Répit le Zéphyr is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote the social integration of people with an intellectual disability (ID) or an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) while allowing their families to achieve greater autonomy.

Our values

  • Respect
  • Communication
  • Dedication
  • Empathy
  • Collaboration

Répit le Zephyr takes the reins of Operation Red Nose

Répit le Zéphyr took over the reins of Operation Red Nose Salaberry-de-Valleyfield in November 2017.

The organization coordinates the Operation Red Nose Campaign for the Salaberry-de-Valleyfield region. In addition to preventing impaired driving during the holiday season, Répit le Zéphyr is able to collect donations in order to offer more respite services to families.

In the spring of 2020, Répit le Zéphyr was accredited by the Operation Red Nose National Office to take the reins for the Vaudreuil-Dorion region as well.

The 39th Operation Red Nose campaign is ” Tu pourras pu t’en passer! ” This year, the Safe Ride service will be offered for the Salaberry-de-Valleyfield and Vaudreuil-Dorion headquarters on Fridays and Saturdays, November 25 and 26, December 2-3, 9-10, 16-17, 22-23, 30-31 ( note that December 22 is a Thursday), in order to make our roads safer during the holiday season.

Would you like to volunteer for the Salaberry-de-Valleyfield or Vaudreuil-Dorion headquarters?
