- Abstract
The immigrant parents of children with disabilities are more vulnerable than others and they own reduced resources by the migration process. They often mobilize more formal support, in order to cope with everyday life destabilizing events. This study aims to explore this situation with eight semi-structured interviews conducted with immigrant parents settled in the province of Quebec. The exploratory analysis of what was said by the participants highlights seven significant stress factors explaining the use of formal support strategies. Unmet needs were also noted. An original explanatory model is proposed to illustrate this particular parental context.
