Day center
The Omega Center was founded in 1984 and officially opened its doors in March 1986. Initially, it started as a 6-month pilot project in 1984 to prove the need of such an organization in the West Island. The existing building on 600 de l’Église Avenue in Dorval opened its doors in March 1986.
We are proud to celebrate our 40th anniversary since our creation!
