It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.

Council for Anglophone Magdalen Islanders
It all begins with an idea.
The project seeks to support the CISSS des Îles in recruiting and retaining bilingual health professionals as a means of increasing access to health and social services in English. More precisely, CAMI intends to support the CISSS des Îles in developing and implementing strategies that support the integration of current and future health professionals into the CISSS and the Magdalen Islands in general.
This is being achieved through 1- Promotion and administration of the Dialogue McGill Community Leadership Bursary, which includes the creation of a Management Committee for the bursary program with participation from CAMI and the CISSS des Iles. In collaboration with this Committee, identify HR gaps and prioritize positions to be filled, create an evaluation tool and evaluation criteria to support the evaluation process for bursary applications, promote the program in the region via social media and other media, manage the application process and carry out liaison work with McGill and generally carry out the administrative responsibilities of the Bursary program. Targets are to allocate regular bursaries and a targeted bursary annually. 2- Development and implementation of “conversation cafés”, which includes collaboration with the CISSS des Îles to identify a team of professionals to participate in ‘’conversation café’’ type training sessions, recruit a coordinator to develop and coordinate the program and run at least one session annually.
