Nouveau Regard Gaspésie

What Nouveau Regard Gaspésie does

Nouveau Regard Gaspésie is a nonprofit community mental health support organization founded in 2019 and headquartered in New Richmond, Quebec. It serves the loved ones — family members, friends, and colleagues — of people living with mental health disorders across the Gaspé Peninsula. The organization describes itself as the only entity in the region specifically dedicated to this caregiver/loved-one population, distinguishing it from organizations that serve the individuals with mental health conditions themselves. It operates within the ROCASM-GÎM (Regroupement des organismes communautaires et alternatifs en santé mentale) network, a coalition of nine community mental health organizations covering the Gaspé Peninsula and Îles-de-la-Madeleine.

The organization's service offering comprises six core programs: individual and small-group intervention services, themed information workshops (e.g., self-care, setting limits, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), community awareness activities delivered in schools and community organizations, peer support groups, a youth track (Volet Jeunesse) for individuals aged 14-29 who have a loved one with mental health issues, and ancillary services including suicide bereavement support and stress management. Delivery is multichannel, combining in-person sessions at three service points (New Richmond, Gaspé, Sainte-Anne-des-Monts), a toll-free phone line, video consultations via Teams and Zoom, and a mobile team that travels throughout the territory. The underlying technology is human-mediated service delivery with light digital infrastructure (video conferencing, donation processing, newsletter/email capture, Facebook and Instagram presence); no proprietary technology, app, API, or AI capability is disclosed.

The business model is a free-service nonprofit funded by charitable donations processed through the Zeffy.com platform and by free annual memberships that auto-renew unless cancelled. All services are provided at no cost, with no waiting list and no diagnosis requirement. Revenue, donor mix, and grant funding are not publicly disclosed. The organization is governed by a community board of directors led by President Audrey Caron-Gagnon, with operational leadership provided by Director Mélanie Arsenault and a team of approximately seven social workers and mental health consultants across the three service points.
