The Roberval Community Residential Center opened its doors in 1981 following the initiative of a group of citizens of Roberval who cared about the fate of people in the criminal justice system.
Located on the edge of Lac St-Jean, close to downtown and public services, CRC Roberval can accommodate twenty-five (25) residents.
The assistance and supervision offered to CRC Roberval are aimed at giving our court clients as many tools as possible in order to promote social reintegration.
Each resident has a personalized stay plan that meets their needs and the expectations of the referring services. The intervention aims to prevent recidivism, awareness and education, in different spheres: drug addiction, violence, social skills, lifestyle improvement, etc.
