Description:
Through this 40-month project, the Centre Interligne Inc. will strengthen its internal capacity to promote its resource. The project will include several stages to help consolidate and expand the organization’s reputation across the country, especially among Francophone minority communities. Project activities will help improve strategic planning to remain in line with the needs of 2SLGBTQI+ communities, enhance team management and human resources practices, continue philanthropic development, and diversify revenue streams to maintain the quality of services. Lastly, the Centre Interligne Inc. will work to develop new pan-Canadian partnerships by promoting its bilingual support and awareness services.
The additional funds will enable Centre Interligne Inc. to strengthen its human resources management capacities by implementing or improving various human resources management mechanisms, as well as processes and reference documents for welcoming, training and transferring knowledge to new employees.
With the additional funding and the extension granted in early 2026, Interligne will continue to strengthen its organizational capacity by improving volunteer coordination and management at its legal clinic; optimizing systems, processes and partnerships to increase the efficiency and reach of its services, and strengthening its human resources practices, namely through talent development, professionalizing internal policies, and developing a new strategic plan over the coming years. These activities will support the organization’s growth, improve the quality and accessibility of its legal services, and strengthen its ability to meet the needs of people of sexual and gender diversity. Through this Centre Interligne will further advance gender equality.
