Chantal Quesney - Universite du Quebec a Montreal,

La Société d’adoption et de protection de l’enfance à Montréal fut, de 1937 à 1972,la plus importante agence de placement «hors murs» de la province. Pionnière dans le domaine au Québec, elle aura œuvré à l’implantation des conditions légales et minimales nécessaires à la désinstitutionnalisation adéquate des enfants sans famille. De fait, le passage du placement asilaire comme mode de protection privilégié à celui en foyer d’accueil ou d’adoption, soulève des enjeux juridiques nouveaux tout comme il appelle la mise en place de pratiques et de savoirs inédits.
