About Action Réfugiés Montréal

Action Réfugiés Montréal is a strong voice for refugees in Montréal and beyond.

Montreal City Mission, our Ride partner, facilitates the journey from exclusion to community.

As a not-for-profit, faith-inspired organization ARM seeks justice for asylum-seekers and refugeed people.

We promote partnerships among people in refugee communities and society at large for mutual empowerment.

Through our Detention, Sponsorship and Twinning programs we provide hope and assistance while raising awareness of refugee rights.

Funds collected by "MCM" teams will support the work of Montreal City Mission.

Action Réfugiés Montréal est une voix forte pour les personnes réfugiées à Montréal et au-delà. La Mission communautaire de Montréal facilite le passage de l'exclusion à la communauté.

En tant qu'organisme sans but lucratif, inspiré par la foi, ARM cherche la justice pour les demandeurs d'asile et les réfugiés.

Nous favorisons l’échange entre les communautés des personnes réfugiées avec la société en général, afin d’augmenter l'autonomisation mutuelle.

Grâce à nos programmes de détention, de parrainage et de jumelage , nous offrons de l'espoir et de l'aide tout en sensibilisant notre société sur la question des droits et accès à la justice.

Les dons amassés par les équipes " MCM" seront attribués au programmes de la Mission communautaire de Montréal.
