GRIS Estrie
The GRIS Estrie (Regional Group for Social Intervention in Estrie) is a non-profit community organization that demystifies sexual orientations and gender identities through a testimony-based approach in the form of awareness workshops. In addition to its demystification workshops, GRIS Estrie offers a variety of services through its four components: the youth component, the seniors component, the rural outreach component, and the intervention component (which currently includes discussion groups in regional county municipalities outside of Sherbrooke).
IRIS Estrie
Since 1988, IRIS Estrie has been working as a community organization to prevent HIV, STIs, and more recently, overdoses. We work to reduce harm among several communities considered at risk, including people who use drugs and members of the 2SLGBTQ+ communities. We are available to provide support and answer questions related to STIs, testing, HIV, and all prevention measures related to PrEP, PEP, and Doxy PEP, without judgment!
