The McGill Project aims to connect local English language high schools with community, health and social services organizations to offer internships to students. By doing so, students complete necessary volunteer hours for school while also increasing their employability and bolstering the capacity of the organizations to serve clients in English.
The program works by connecting students in local high schools with volunteer opportunities in the health and social services sector in the city. We work with high schools across the island, and we are always recruiting more students and organizations to host. Our program will launch in September for the 2019-2020 school year, you can email us in August for placement details and planning.
You can contact the McGill Project Coordination at coordination@ccs-montreal.org for more information or register as a school or host organization in the meantime.

Created by our partner, the Townshipper's Association, the
Health and Social Services Career Opportunities Catalogue is a guide for bilingual people who want to work in the health and social services fields. It includes information about more than 100 kinds of jobs, plus details on health and social services training programs available in the region.
CCS has a limited supply of hard copies available of the catalogue, if you would like one please contact Riley Dalys-Fine at

What are my obligations as a host?
As a host organization, we ask that you can commit to providing supervision to volunteers over the course of their placement (from about October-March) for a small amount of time per month.
