Training and Human Resources Development Project : Annual Report

The McGill Training and Human Resource Development Project contributes to other Quebec government initiatives aimed at ensuring that English-speaking people in Quebec enjoy equitable access, in their own language, to the full range of health and social services available to the general population. Its two main objectives are to ensure effective communication in English between English-speaking Quebecers and the health and social services workers who serve their needs and to increase the number of English-speaking professionals working in the Quebec health and social services system. The Project involves the implementation of four measures in partnership with stakeholders concerned by the issue of access to health and social services in the English-speaking communities. The 2008-2009 year was an extension of the Project which finished in March 2008.
