ECO·02 (English Community Organization Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean) is a non-profit organization where we foster the well-being of English-speaking communities through existing community programs and provide English information available to them on health and social services. Helping all age groups within our community is important to us. We support and nurture the development of partnerships with existing French organizations through discussions of the needs and priorities of the English-speaking communities that we serve.

To provide a strong foundation and guide us over the next three years, ECO·02 has created a Strategic Plan which defines its mission, its vision, its goals, as well as its challenges and the strategic orientations which will be deployed to overcome them. This result was achieved through a consultation process including the Board of Directors and key stakeholders and was facilitated with the help of an outside consultation firm.

We became newly incorporated in May 2019. As such, we are open to new board members and volunteers willing to contribute their ideas and their time to help us grow as a non-profit organization.

In the first months following our incorporation, we established partnerships with the local English schools, the Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de service sociaux du Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean (CIUSSS SLSJ), the Bagotville Military Family Resource Centre (Bagotville MFRC), the Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN) and other provincial Networking and Partnership Initiatives (NPIs). We have created an open dialogue and an exchange of information and ideas.

Help us to achieve our vision of Connecting our Communities and be a part of our success!
