Max Vaillancourt
MSW Candidate, Intern @thecompassionproject.ca, ACCESS PROGRAM
My name is Max. I come with nearly a decade of experience in supporting communities facing oppression: both in my hometown of Edmonton, Alberta, and in the city of Toronto, Ontario.
In the past, I have worked as a community leader, activist, community support worker, and supportive listener. I practice using a strengths-based, person-focused, anti-oppression, harm reduction, and
trauma-informed perspectives.
Most important, I come with lived experience of mental health struggles and resilience. I know that you have strengths, values, and connections that will help you through anything you’re struggling with. Let’s talk about it!
To add, I am LGBTQ+ positive, as well as polyamory and sex-work informed. I believe that it is important to honor and hold space for the things you value in your life. I am here to work with
you and offer tools to help you live in a way that aligns with your values and your hopes for the future. You can get a hold of me directly via email: or call/text us at 905 512 1233.
