At InfoTET, we consider it essential to highlight community organizations that play a key role in disseminating information and supporting Travailleurs Étrangers Temporaires (TET) in Quebec. In this context, Le Centre d’appui aux communautés immigrantes (CACI) stands out for its consistent work and commitment within the Programme de Soutien aux Travailleurs Migrants (PSTM).
Within the PSTM, CACI serves as a reference point for migrant workers, providing clear information, guidance, and support tailored to their realities. Its close, hands-on approach allows it to respond concretely to the needs of TET, particularly those facing vulnerabilities related to their immigration status or working conditions.
InfoTET emphasizes that CACI’s intervention directly helps migrant workers better understand their rights and responsibilities, identify available resources, and make informed decisions during their stay in Quebec.
CACI’s work within the PSTM translates into concrete actions that benefit TET, including:
- Dissemination of reliable information on labor rights and obligations;
- Guidance to health, employment, and social support services;
- Assistance in overcoming linguistic, cultural, and administrative barriers;
- Personalized support promoting autonomy and social integration.
This work is essential to strengthen the ability of migrant workers to exercise their rights and access the services they are entitled to.
For those who want to better visualize and understand CACI’s work within the PSTM, here are some videos from their YouTube channel presenting the program and featuring TET testimonials:

These videos show how support is implemented, the services offered, and the direct experience of migrant workers.
At InfoTET, we recognize that CACI’s work fully aligns with the goals of the PSTM: improving access to information, strengthening the protection of migrant workers, and reducing the risks of isolation or misinformation. CACI’s experience in community work and knowledge of migration realities allows the program to have a real impact on the ground.
CACI’s collaboration within the PSTM strengthens an essential support network for TET in Quebec and helps create fairer and more respectful work environments.
At InfoTET, we value and highlight CACI’s commitment to TET. Its active participation in the PSTM demonstrates the importance of community work as a pillar for information, support, and the defense of TET rights.
We will continue to highlight these types of actions, which concretely contribute to improving the living and working conditions of migrant workers in Quebec.
