Entitled ‘Community organizations’ strategies to adapt the delivery of services to vulnerable older adults and their caregivers in a period of social isolation’, this project is co-directed by Valérie Poulin (University of Québec at Trois-Rivières) and Véronique Provencher (University of Sherbrooke).

On May 14, Marie-Chantal Falardeau, doctoral student in communications at the University of Québec at Trois-Rivères, received her Ph.D. after successfully defending her thesis.

These studies will be undertaken for the Chartwell-2 project.
