Beati Foundation expresses its full and unequivocal solidarity with community organizations across Quebec that are currently mobilizing as part of the “Le communautaire à boutte!” movement, in a context of chronic underfunding and increasing structural pressures on the social safety net. Day after day, these organizations sustain an essential social safety net, often with insufficient resources. Year after year, needs continue to grow, teams are exhausted, and prospects for improvement remain uncertain. The current mobilization, including the strike announced from March 23 to April 2, reflects an untenable situation. We recognize that our society relies heavily on the strength, expertise, and commitment of the community sector. In a context where the state is withdrawing from its social responsibilities and shifting increasing pressure onto community organizations, it is all the more essential to reaffirm that adequate funding, recognition, and the long-term sustainability of the community sector are прежде and foremost the responsibility of the state. As a Foundation, we refuse to substitute for this role, while acknowledging our responsibility to act in a coherent and committed manner. This includes, in particular: Strengthening our support for unrestricted funding, to enable organizations to carry out their work according to their own priorities; Reducing administrative requirements and reporting mechanisms, so that resources can be directed where they have the greatest impact; Fully recognizing the autonomy of organizations and their expertise rooted in the realities of their communities; Contributing, within our means, to more just and sustainable conditions for those who carry out this essential work. We fully recognize and support the demands put forward by the movement: decent working conditions, sufficient and stable funding, full recognition, and the protection of community sector autonomy. These demands are legitimate. They are necessary. We reaffirm our commitment to stand actively and sustainably alongside the community sector, fully assuming our role and responsibilities. Because a strong social safety net cannot rest on the exhaustion of those who uphold it. To support or join the movement: https://aboutte.info/
