Our programs

LAKAY runs programs that reach both people directly affected by racism and racial profiling, and the institutions whose decisions impact their daily lives. Each program combines support, awareness-raising, and documentation.

FAMILIES Project

Supporting families from the cultural communities of Lanaudière in interaction with youth protection, and raising awareness among intervention teams about intercultural realities.

My pen against racism and racial profiling

An annual writing competition for secondary school students, complete with scholarships, teaching tools for teachers and an awards ceremony.

Documentation of racial profiling

Research and publication work on racial profiling in Repentigny, conducted with the Profiling Observatory of the University of Montreal.

Eyes of Justice

Digital tool developed by LAKAY as part of its work on the rights of racialized people.

Figures in Black History

Twenty-seven portraits of black women and men who have made their mark on the history of Haiti, Africa, Canada and the United States.
