A local centre with a vital role for youth
Missions Locales are the leading nonprofit network in France supporting the social and professional integration of NEETs — young people aged 16 to 25 who are not in education, employment, or training. They work across multiple areas: employment, training, housing, health, financial resources, mobility, and civic engagement.
The Mission Locale de Paris offers an integrated approach to removing barriers to employability for young Parisians, with six reception sites dedicated to personalized guidance and support.
Highlights
- An integrated approach that addresses social barriers and supports sustainable professional inclusion
- A platform of tailored solutions, connecting companies, education providers, and nonprofits to meet each young person’s individual needs
- Programs that re-engage disconnected youth, helping them transition back into education, training, or employment
