Organizations for solidarity and mutual aid Marseille 14th 13014

In Bouches-du-Rhône, the association has more than 110 reception and solidarity strategists. It is present in 70 neighbourhoods in Marseille and acts against poverty and exclusion with various means: day and night receptions, a health committee (prevention, aid), a team of hospital visitors whose main activity is assistance to disadvantaged people, the support of the person with a broader target towards autonomy and social reintegration. Day care is essentially open to the homeless, asylum seekers, leavers, refugees. In the evening, mobile hospitality tours in the south and downtown areas. At the beginning of 2013, a new bus (Solidar'BUS) strengthens the mobile unit and goes to the front of young people who are living in precarious situations to present the range of aid and activities put in place by the association. Food aid survives thanks to the European Plan and the collection operations in supermarkets. On the social aspect, many actions also: assistance for vacation departures, young people's awareness of international solidarity, cyber space for Internet access, job research, information technology, literacy, school support and even cultural actions (writing workshops, video projects…).
