The objective of our tutoring services is to promote academic support by providing a tutor to accompany young patients who are pre-dialysis, on dialysis, or have received a transplant, to support them in continuing their primary and secondary education.
The impacts of chronic illness are numerous for young patients and their families. The intensity of medical follow-up and care required for young patients often results in a significant rate of school absenteeism. Additionally, parents who need to accompany their children during treatments often face financial burdens.
This program supports young individuals dealing with kidney disease in the present for their future.
Our academic tutoring service operates in close collaboration with the social workers and nurses of the two children's hospitals in Quebec and in partnership with an affiliated tutoring organization.
