In 2015, Centraide of Greater Montreal launched its Collective Impact Project (CIP), an initiative that aims to reduce poverty in Montreal neighborhoods made possible thanks to donations from seven major private foundations. In this paper, we first describe how the CIP is part of the integrated territorial approach (ITA) and reflects a repositioning of the State in the fight against poverty which relegates to local and Non-state actors the responsibility to stop this scourge. We will then highlight the impact of this trend on the autonomy of community organizations and the people whom with they work.
