Résumé
Cet article présente les résultats d’une étude participative axée sur les services post-hébergement pour les femmes montréalaises. L’étude visait à documenter les facteurs associés aux transitions post-hébergement et à identifier des pistes d’action pour soutenir celles-ci. Un café du monde mené auprès de 40 personnes a permis de dégager trois actions prioritaires : 1) cibler le soutien pratique, matériel et financier pendant la transition ; 2) développer la pair-aidance et 3) développer l’intervention pivot en post-hébergement. Le développement de pratiques d’intégration communautaire alternatives par et pour les femmes en transition est une priorité pour l’intervention et la recherche.

Abstract
This article presents findings from a community-based participatory study focused on post-shelter services for women in Montreal. The study aimed to examine the structural and individual issues associated with post-shelter transitions and to identify action plans to support post-shelter transition. Recommendations from a World Café with 40 participants include three priority actions: 1) targeting practical, material, and financial support during transition; 2) development of peer support; and 3) implementation of pivotal post-shelter intervention. The development of alternative community integration practices by and for women during post-shelter transition is a priority for intervention and research.
