At Montreal Lake Child & Family Agency, we envision a future where all of our children are raised in the embrace of their own homes, surrounded by loving and caring families. It is our steadfast belief that every child deserves the warmth of a nurturing family environment.

What Sets Us Apart: Land-Based Healing

What distinguishes us is our unique approach to healing, one that harmoniously blends conventional therapy with the wisdom of indigenous land-based practices. We understand that the earth carries a profound healing energy, and we are privileged to incorporate these age-old traditions into our modern therapeutic approaches, respecting and honoring indigenous wisdom.
