Biography

Chantal is an Assistant Professor at the School of Physical and Occupational Therapy at Sherbrooke University. She completed her PhD in Rehabilitation Sciences from the University of Montréal and her Post-Doctoral training at CanChild. Her research focuses on developing, implementing and evaluating evidence-based interventions and service delivery models for children with disabilities or developmental delays. She is currently involved in projects using the web to either transfer knowledge to families or therapists (e.g. Developmental Coordination Workshops) or to deliver early intervention through telerehabilitation. She is also part of the CanChild Partnering for Change team and works to adapt and implement collaborative school-based tiered service delivery model in different contexts and health care systems. Most of Chantal's projects use participatory-action research approaches and engage stakeholders to improve service delivery to children with disabilities. Chantal is also involved in global health projects and projects focusing on increasing access to services for vulnerable children, in her own community and internationally.
