Amilia Named Best Workplace for Mental Wellness in Canada for the Second Consecutive Year

Montreal, May 26, 2026 – Amilia, a leader in the management software industry for YMCAs, JCCs, and community organizations, has been recognized as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ for Mental Wellness. This marks the second consecutive year the company has received this recognition from Great Place to Work Canada®. 

This distinction highlights Amilia’s continued commitment to fostering a workplace where employees feel supported, connected, and empowered to thrive. Based on direct employee feedback, the award reflects a culture built on care, authenticity and collaboration.  

Amely Sevigny, Director of Talent and Culture, shared what this achievement means for the company: 

“This recognition reflects something we deeply care about: creating a workplace where people feel supported, heard, and comfortable being honest about when they need guidance , flexibility, or balance. We know that mental wellness is not built through one-time initiatives or statements, but through everyday actions, open conversations, and the way we show up for one another.”

A culture rooted in care and authenticity

At Amilia, mental wellness starts with building an environment of trust and openness where employees can show up as their authentic selves. Continuous feedback is encouraged across all teams, helping individuals grow while strengthening collaboration.  

The company also invests in ongoing diversity and inclusion initiatives, equipping employees with the knowledge and space to foster belonging, reinforcing a culture where differences are embraced. 

Wellness beyond the workplace

Amilia’s approach to mental wellness goes beyond the workplace by supporting employees holistically. Team members have access to a comprehensive Employee Assistance Program (EAP), offering confidential 24/7 mental health support. Additional benefits include telemedicine services, generous vacation policies, and extended coverage for mental and physical health professionals.  

Amilia integrates wellness into the employee experience through initiatives such as guided meditation sessions, wellness financial credits, and inclusive physical activities. These programs are designed to remove barriers and empower employees to prioritize their mental and physical health. The goal is not only to provide resources, but to create an environment where employees feel comfortable using them and talking openly about their well-being. 

Building a workplace where people thrive

By prioritizing mental wellness, Amilia continues to strengthen a culture where employees can grow both personally and professionally. This recognition reinforces Amilia’s belief that investing in employee well-being is essential to building strong teams and delivering meaningful impact for clients and communities.
