DÉFI ACTION SANTÉ

Une course pour se dépasser… et pour aider

Le Défi Action Santé was created to support a key program of the Foundation: the Meta‑Action Program.

This program supports patients from the outpatient psychiatry clinic at Hôpital Jean‑Talon by helping improve several determinants of their physical condition, thereby promoting better overall health—both mental and physical.

Taking part in the Challenge means making a concrete gesture to support these patients on their journey toward well‑being.

Everyone is welcome!

Whether you’re a casual runner, an experienced athlete, or simply someone who enjoys walking outdoors, the Defi Action Santé is for you.

👉 You can participate:

On your own
With your family
With friends
With colleagues
Or by creating your own team!

Accessible and inclusive routes for everyone:

1 km – children’s course
5 km – run
10 km – run
5 km – walk

There’s a challenge for everyone, no matter your pace.
