Cabot Square Project
Indigenous program
Our objectives are to create a safe space for community members, to facilitate cohabitation and to encourage cultural learning.
The Cabot Square Project was originally developed in 2014 due to the need to counteract the displacement of Indigenous people in the downtown area of Montreal. The Native Women’s Shelter met with many different community organizations in hopes of creating and implementing a strategy to address this issue. The mediators are sponsored by the City of Montreal.

The INDex was created to support First Nations, Inuit and Métis in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal in finding relevant and up-to-date information on services that were created specifically for them. Our goal is to promote cultural safety and community connectedness.
If you are an Indigenous person living, moving to or visiting Tiohtià:ke, the INDex can support you in your steps!
