Our Philosophy
L'Auberge Madeleine favours intersectional feminist intervention, which places women at the heart of their decisions and valorizes their power to act.
Our approach is based on reducing wrongdoing, and we are inclusive of women dealing with an addiction issue.
We collaborate with numerous partners and are committed to raising awareness of the issues women in a homelessness situation experience.
