Geneviève has been involved with the CHUM's JAP clinic since 2010 and earned a master's degree in social work from McGill University in 2015. For several years, she has been interested in psychosocial intervention in an intercultural context. Deeply involved with the families and friends of young people treated at the JAP clinic since she began working there, she was tasked in 2020 with reevaluating the programming offered to them, and this mission quickly became central to her practice.
