A registered charity, Fondation Emergo supports the development and long-term sustainability of specialized respite services offered by Répit Emergo across Quebec.
Fondation Emergo supports the services of Répit Emergo and acts as a lever for funding, development, and awareness. Its mission: to make specialized respite care more accessible to families who live the reality of autism on a daily basis, often feeling exhausted and isolated. The foundation mobilizes the community around this reality, values the commitment of care providers, and ensures that services remain humane, tailored, and sustainable.

Respite is a breath of fresh air. It’s what allows us, as parents, to keep going, to be there for our other children… to carry on despite the daily challenges.
Long-time allies who support Emergo’s mission year after year
Every year, we recruit and train a caring and dynamic team, ready to support participants with respect, structure, and positivity.
Seeing kids thrive while their parents finally catch their breath is proof that what we do matters. That’s what motivates me every day.

The team includes Pierre (Director, Répit Emergo), Reetta (Director, Fondation Emergo), Éric (Assistant Director), Marie-Alice (Respite Coordinator), and Ameyo (Administrative Officer).
