The census of municipal day camps is underway throughout Quebec

The Réseau des unités régionales de loisir et de sport (RURLS) and the ACQ are organizing a major census of municipal day camps in Quebec in 2024.

Your collaboration is requested

The municipal sector and delegations in Quebec will receive an email from their URLS agent who will provide them with the necessary information to participate in this important census. Relevant organizations are required to respond to questions by the end of September.

Importance of the census

The participation of all relevant communities is required to obtain a clear and precise portrait of municipal day camps in Quebec.

The issues related to welcoming clients with special needs and sharing school infrastructure must be better documented, and this census is an essential tool to achieve this.

Have any question?
