Corporations and external organizations

The role of external corporations and organizations

External corporations and organizations are independent, for-profit or not-for-profit entities that work in partnership with Ville de Brossard. Their role is to support economic, cultural, sporting and social development by leveraging their expertise in these fields.

We work with various organizations to :

• Optimize resources by benefiting from the infrastructures and skills of specialized players;
• Encourage innovation in the management of municipal and community services;
• Offer better service to citizens through well-established, efficient organizations.

Corporations and outside organizations

These corporations and organizations are financed and supervised in several ways:

• Municipal grants: we allocate funds to support their operations;
• Strategic partnerships: we collaborate with other public and private institutions;
• Supervision process: we regularly monitor activities and results to ensure that objectives are met.

Involvement with external corporations and organizations

Citizens can take advantage of the services offered by these organizations in a variety of ways:

• Access to services: information is available on the various websites of corporations and organizations.
• Participate in activities: events, workshops and programs organized in collaboration with the City.
• Get involved: you can become a volunteer or active member of certain organizations.
