At the First Narayever Congregation we participate in a community that is both richly traditional and gender egalitarian. We follow a traditional approach to Jewish prayer, valuing the beauty and depth of ancient prayers in Hebrew. At the same time, we have equal roles for men and women in all aspects of the service. Members of our congregation come from a wide spectrum of Jewish experiences. Some are encountering Judaism for the first time, while others have had years of intensive study. We value including every person in ways that are right for him or her, and we encourage you to participate in ways in which you feel comfortable. Services: Services are held every Friday night (6 pm), on Shabbat (9:00 am), and Sunday morning (9 am), as well as on Yom Tovim. Congregational members routinely assume the role of leaders for our services, and all are invited to take an active role in our davening. Opportunities to learn the traditional liturgy are provided.

In the spring of 1985, an artists collective founded Vox Populi, a non-profit organisation devoted to communication and multidisciplinary artistic practices. In 1987, the organisation redefined its mandate to concentrate exclusively on photography. VOX organised the first edition of the Mois de la Photo à Montréal, an international biennial event, in 1989. In 2002, after having organised seven editions of the event, it decided to make the Mois de la Photo à Montréal a separate organisation in order to enable both organisations to focus on expanding their respective fields of activity. In 2004, VOX pursued this goal by moving to Saint-Laurent Boulevard and devoting itself to the image in a broader sense. The issues VOX addresses thus derive from photography and extend into the culture of the contemporary image.

At FSI we connect families with each other and encourage parent-to-parent support. At the Family Support Institute we have over 220 Resource Parents (RP's) that we provide training to each year. Every one of our Resource Parents have children with disabilities and they call on their own expertise and experiences when supporting other families. Our RP's agree to volunteer for FSI and connect with other families looking for support in their regions. Our office will facilitate parent-to-parent connections as well as support families through information and referral and connections to regional and Provincial supports and services. FSI also provides Provincial training and workshops for families and professionals around the province. We also have a lending library with books and videos available on loan.
