Connecting with each other in a healthy way makes all the difference.

Within a community, living environment or work team, healthy relationships improve people’s living conditions. And, in a society where life is good, it is a priority.

Mesures Alternatives des Vallées du Nord (MAVN) has therefore been committed to this since 1990. The organization has thus become the reference in the development of relational skills in the Laurentians. Through our services, we rely on unifying principles:

Empower people
Promote communications
Help people connect
Bring people together
Reassure during conflicts

Promote communication

At MAVN, the team works every day to foster communication between parties who need a boost to improve their relationship, resolve a conflict, or repair a situation following harmful behavior. All to achieve more harmonious relationships.

Alternative and restorative justice

We rely on justice that is intended to be alternative, that is to say a process where everything is done to reduce recourse to legal authorities. It may also involve sound and humane management, extrajudicial measures (without recourse to a judge) or specific penalties (judicial sanctions decided by a judge).

MAVN is a member of the Association of Quebec Alternative Justice Organizations (ASSOJAQ).

Conflicts are normal!

For MAVN, the conflict is approached in a positive way. During our life, our personal journey, our professional journey, and in our neighborhood life, conflicts can occur. This is normal and we are well placed to understand them.

Even that it happens that certain conflicts lead to opportunities that would not have seen the light of day other than by the desire to resolve the situation. Our role is to bring you together, discuss, find solutions and implement actions that will benefit the parties involved, while respecting everyone’s rights.

The active involvement of people

For us, those affected by breaches, disputes and conflicts must be involved in the resolution and resolution of disputes. We favor this approach, always respecting everyone’s rights and dignity.
