Apprentis d’Auteuil Foundation, a Catholic foundation recognized as being of public interest, has been supporting vulnerable young people for over 160 years. It welcomes, educates, and trains them, while also supporting their families to help them in their parenting role and prevent situations of breakdown.
Through 430 establishments (including three hospitality schools), the foundation supports more than 40,000 young people and 9,000 families. Its work focuses on situations of significant vulnerability: children at risk, young school dropouts, young people without employment or training, isolated families, and more.
The foundation develops personalized pathways tailored to each individual’s needs, with strong attention given to the educational relationship. It works in partnership with local stakeholders to address the broader challenges faced by young people (housing, health, mobility) and continually adapts its programs to social and economic changes. Professional integration and youth autonomy are at the heart of its mission.
