On August 25, we had the pleasure of welcoming Rémi Racine, President and CEO of Behaviour Interactive, along with two members of his team, to the Mental Health Living Unit located on the upper floors of the Manoir-de-l’Âge-d’Or residential center in the Jeanne-Mance neighborhood.

Since 2023, this living environment has welcomed adults aged 18 to 100 who do not require hospitalization in a psychiatric unit, but who also lack the autonomy needed to live alone. Here, each person can feel at home while benefiting from specialized care (psychiatry, medicine, nursing, social work) and a program of activities that supports gradual reintegration into the community.

Initially, the unit was set up on a single floor. Since February 2025, two floors now accommodate 30 residents in redesigned spaces that better meet the population’s needs. This new environment aims to provide both residents and care teams with a warm and safe living space.

While infrastructure work was funded by the government, it is thanks to the generosity of Behaviour Interactive and the Leclerc-Racine Foundation that Fondation Santé Urbaine was able to finance furniture, specialized equipment, and materials for sports, arts, and music activities. These contributions transform clinical spaces into true living environments.

Fondation Santé Urbaine warmly thanks Behaviour Interactive and the Leclerc-Racine Foundation for their essential support.
