Core offering

AutonHommie provides individual and group psychosocial support services for men in difficulty, including intake and orientation, individual consultations, peer support groups, training sessions, and awareness workshops. Services are delivered in person at its Quebec City headquarters and remotely via video, primarily to men in Quebec's Capitale-Nationale region.

Product overview

AutonHommie is a non-profit resource center for men established in 1984, offering a unified suite of social support services rather than a technology product. The core service portfolio includes: (1) Accueil et orientation (SAO) - mandatory intake and orientation service; (2) Consultation individuelle - short-term individual support sessions in-person, by phone, or online; (3) Groupes d'aide - peer support groups including Hommes en rupture, Gestion des émotions, Gestion des conflits, Maître de soi, Hommes victimes d'agression sexuelle dans l'enfance, Père et DPJ, and Gestion des situations difficiles; (4) Formation - custom training for organizations; (5) Sensibilisation - awareness workshops for schools and workplaces; (6) Location de salles - room rental for meetings. Payment products (Paiement individuel at $5-$60 and Paiement groupe at $10-$15) facilitate user contributions for services. The organization also publishes 'Intervenir auprès des hommes en difficulté' as a practical guide for professionals.

Emerging players

• Kids Help Phone: Canada-wide e-mental health service offering support to young people. Comparable in psychosocial support delivery and not-for-profit structure but focused on youth across Canada rather than adult men in Quebec.
• Tel-Jeunes: Quebec-wide helpline and support service for youth. Comparable in tele-support delivery and Quebec psychosocial ecosystem, but focused on youth rather than adult men.
• Interligne: Quebec-wide helpline providing listening and support services to LGBTQ+ individuals. Comparable in tele-support service model and Quebec psychosocial ecosystem but focused on a different demographic than AutonHommie's male clientele.

Others

• Regroupement québécois des CALACS: Quebec network of sexual assault centers (CALACS) providing trauma-informed psychosocial support. Comparable in trauma support service model and Quebec nonprofit ecosystem, though serving primarily women.
• L'Appui pour les proches aidants: Quebec-wide nonprofit supporting caregivers with counseling, information, and respite services. Comparable as a Quebec-based psychosocial nonprofit serving individuals in difficulty, though focused on caregivers rather than men generally.

Broad incumbents

• CIUSSS de la Capitale-Nationale: Public health and social services authority for the Capitale-Nationale region including CLSCs. Comparable in serving the same geographic population with psychosocial support but as the broad public-sector incumbent rather than a specialized men's nonprofit.
• Association canadienne pour la santé mentale - Filiale du Québec: Quebec branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association providing broad mental health promotion, education, and support services. Comparable as a Quebec psychosocial nonprofit serving individuals with mental health needs but operating at much broader scale and scope.

Direct peers

• Centre de prévention du suicide de Québec (CPS Québec): Quebec City-based suicide prevention and mental health support organization providing psychosocial services to individuals in distress. Directly comparable to AutonHommie in location, target audience of vulnerable adults, and psychosocial support service model.

Regional players

• Suicide Action Montréal: Montreal-based suicide prevention and postvention organization providing psychosocial support. Comparable in service delivery and Quebec mental health ecosystem role, but geographically focused on Montreal metro.
• Tel-Aide: Montreal-based crisis and psychosocial support helpline offering listening and referral services. Comparable in psychosocial support delivery model but serves the broader Montreal region and general public rather than focusing specifically on men.
