Lucie Lamoureux-Bruneau
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lucie Lamoureux-Bruneau (1877–1951) was a philanthropist and a City Councillor in Montreal, Quebec.[1]
She was born in Montreal in 1877 and was married to Théodule Bruneau, a surgeon. She was instrumental in getting mental health institutions established. She was a co-founder of the Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine (Sainte-Justine University Health Center) in 1907.[2] In 1926, thanks to her effort, the Ecole des enfants infirmes, a school for poor and disabled children, opened in 1926.[3]
