Social services are support services to individuals, but who are hermetically very closed to the public. Even the professionals often get lost in the complexity of the various services.

In the interest of that? the answer is simple, in the interest of general advice to bail out their banks by increasing subsidies to social action.

 

 

There are 2 types of social services, especially managed public social services by General Councils and the PJJ (judicial protection of youth) which depends on the Ministry of justice. It is found in form regional (DRPJJ) or departmental (DDPJJ); the social services from the private sector, that exist in the form of recognized public utility associations working in the field of childhood, to the courts.

 The departmental cell of children at risk (CDED):

The CDED is a device linked to the protection of children in France. Since the Act of March 5, 2007 all French departments should have their CDED. Today is there only 12. Therefore only 12 departments that comply with the Act of 5 March 2007 in order to avoid malfunctions.

The Act of 5 March 2007 reforming child protection instructs the president of the general Council of the collection, treatment and evaluation of disturbing information concerning children at risk or in potential danger. Means information concern any information, including medical, likely fear that a child is in danger or risk of danger, may need help, and that should be a transmission to the departmental cell for evaluation and continued to give.

(2) THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE PUBLIC SOCIAL SERVICES:

Judicial Protection of youth is a public service which has the mission to support and educate juvenile offenders or danger that entrust the judges of the children and the juvenile court. It is a branch of the Ministry of Justice (DPJJ), which has services decentralized in regions (DRPJJ) and (DDPJJ) departments.

Setting up a specific justice for minors, the idea dates back at the end of the 19th century, is carried out in release (February 2, 1945 order). Juvenile courts must focus on the measures "of protection, assistance, monitoring, and education", and only be used at the prison that "when the circumstances and the personality of the offender" appear to require it. To implement this program, administrative autonomy of the prison administration is created on September 1, 1945: the educational-correctional institution. It directly manages public institutions of reformatory (IPES), public observation centres of borstal (COPES), and control authorized educational institutions. These first facilities, yet very close to the old "correction houses", will evolve and diversify. In 1990, the educational-correctional institution will become the judicial Protection of youth. Meanwhile, the legislation has been completed by the order of 23 December 1958 and by the law of 4 June 1970. These texts expand the area of intervention of the reformatory giving him jurisdiction over judicial child protection (civil law).

Missions and objectives

Judicial Protection of youth missions are the protection and education of minors in danger or subject to a judicial measure; the PJJ aims to foster their integration and their academic, social and professional integration. The PJJ aims before all educational. This education takes various forms: intervention and follow-up in the context of the family environment, placement in an institution, accommodation in homes or in foster care - but also, since 2004, followed by imprisoned minors.

Actions and devices

The youth in care

Three categories of young people are supported by the PJJ: minors at risk, juvenile delinquents and young adults social integration.

Minors at risk

Articles 375 et seq. of the civil code organize the judicial intervention for children at risk. "If the health, safety or morals of a non-emancipated minor are in danger or if the conditions of his education are seriously compromised, educational assistance measures can be ordered by justice [...]" (art. 375). Several measures can be taken by the judge to have a knowledge of the minor and his family environment: social survey measures investigative and educational guidance, expertise.

The juvenile judge may entrust these different measures to the services of the public sector by PJJ, to the services of social assistance departments childhood or the non-profit sector empowered.

Two types of support are possible:

-the AEMO (educational assistance in an open environment);

-the withdrawal of the child from its natural environment

Juvenile offenders

The 1945 order gives priority to educational measures. Educational sanctions may be applied to minors aged at least 10 years, and penalties - which can go up to imprisonment - for more than 13 years. Minors accused of crime are considered by the Court for children (less than 16 years old at the time) or by the Court of Assizes of minors (minors (16 years old).

The young adults from 18 to 21 years

 

They can benefit to their request for a measure of judicial protection. They cater for this to a judge of the children when they are experiencing difficulties of social integration.

Services of the authorized non-profit sector (APJJ)

 

More than 500 associations authorized by the Department of Justice support, in their institutions and their services — more than a thousand — about two-thirds of minors benefiting from a judicial measure, mainly in respect of educational assistance. Because of this, they provide the home of almost all of minors of less than 13 years justice.

(3) THE SOCIAL SERVICES PRIVATE:

 

Private social services exist in the form of associations of public benefit. In the field of the protection of the child they are named by the judges of the children to follow the IOE or AEMO measurements.
