Our actions as a family foundation - Apprentis d'Auteuil

Apprentis d’Auteuil is a charity organization which proudly supports more than 50,000 children and young people all over the world. Our mission is to receive, educate, train and integrate them into society, giving them trust and the belief that they are in charge of their life. But we couldn’t do this without working with families – parents are also in difficult situations, they have to be helped to regain their strength so that they can support their children. Apprentis d’Auteuil acts as a family foundation, guiding parents so that we can have an impact on their children as well.

Being a catholic charity, we are committed to make the world a better place, starting by children and parents in difficulty. Get to know more about our projects in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa.

Family foundation: open houses and childcare centers

Apprentis d’Auteuil’s actions as a family foundation are based on two pillars: prevention and reintegration. Our objective is to keep children from being placed to institutions and to remain with their parents – and if that happened, support the whole family during the process of return of the child.

We are helping families with two programs: the Family Open Houses and childcare centers, where fathers and mothers can share their experiences and regain confidence about their parenting skills. We provide psychological help, trainings and social activities so that the participants are all actively working on their professional and family life.

Our charity organization network

Apprentis d’Auteuil couldn’t be helping families without the support of our operational network of likeminded associations. We are involved in numerous project lead by the European Union, but also international ones. One of our programs in Morocco aims to improve the situation of street children and their mothers by offering nursery care, training sessions and psychological support groups. We have huge successes thanks to our partners Al Karam and El Khir: more than 60% of the participants have found a job after our training sessions. You can find the recent information about our work and accomplishments as an international family foundation in the “News” section of our website.
