| Jean-François discovered the YMCA in September 2008 when he joined the Y’s social integration program designed to help intellectually handicap people integrate into sports and community activities while being accompanied by a volunteer. He put forth a lot of effort and perseverance in order to achieve his personal autonomy. Today, it’s his turn, as he now volunteers his time to accompany another intellectually handicapped person. Jean-François is proud of his progress and takes his role as a mentor very seriously. His participation at the Y has enabled him to develop his full potential. Congratulations Jean-François!
