Supervised Housing

PURPOSE

Encourage the recovery and autonomy of tenants through a methodology and measures that encourage taking back control of one’s life.

Much more than just supervised apartments, it is a bilingual and stimulating living environment.

To achieve this, we offer a healthy environment in affordable apartments that are adapted to the needs of those who live there.

Rehabilitation and reintegration into the community are also at the heart of the environment.

To achieve our purpose, services are offered directly on site:

  • In social work.
  • In intervention.
  • In accompaniment and referrals.

GOALS

  • Develop autonomy and regain power over one’s life (apartment, finances, hygiene, everyday life and domestic life, etc.).
  • Develop and/or pursue a life project (work, study, volunteering or other).
  • Manage the activities necessary to maintain good physical and psychological health.
  • Maintain, develop or expand one’s social network.
  • Regain self-confidence.
  • Encouraging mutual assistance and cooperation among tenants.
  • To take one’s place as a citizen.
