What Information Marseille Accueil Jeunes Listen Health does

IMAJE Santé is a Marseille-based non-profit association (association loi 1901) founded in 1999 by a pediatrician, a child psychiatrist, and a clinical psychologist to address gaps in healthcare access for adolescents and young adults. The organization operates a Point Accueil Ecoute Jeunes (PAEJ) providing free, confidential, and unconditional medico-psycho-social services to youth aged 12-25 and their families — without requiring health insurance (Carte Vitale) or appointments. Its multidisciplinary team (psychologists, doctors, nurses, specialized educators, social workers, and health mediators) delivers individual consultations across four modules — medical, psychological, social, and health mediation — alongside a specialized transcultural consultation service for exiled and migrant youth that uses mother-tongue interpretation within a psychoanalytic-anthropological framework.

The organization's service surface is built around proximity-based physical delivery rather than technology. Four reception points across central and northern Marseille (1st, 3rd, 14th, 15th arrondissements) provide walk-in access and scheduled appointments, while group-based collective prevention and health education actions are delivered on-site at schools, social centers, and youth insertion organizations through co-development partnerships. Supporting services include parental support, professional training (including annual transcultural sensitization sessions), and territorial diagnostics. There is no proprietary technology platform; operations rely on standard healthcare record-keeping and digital office tools.

IMAJE Santé's revenue model is exclusively institutional and philanthropic — there is no user fees, no product sales, and no commercial revenue. Funding sources include recurring subsidies from ARS PACA (the regional health agency), Conseil Départemental des Bouches-du-Rhône, MILDECA, and SG-CIPD, supplemented by project grants from foundations (Fondation de France, Fondation Véolia, Fondation Solimut Mutuelle de France), membership dues, and contractual service provisions to institutional partners. Its go-to-market is community-led and referral-driven: approximately 80% of youth served are referred by a network of over 70 institutional and associative partners, including schools, public hospitals (AP-HM), Mission Locale, MDA, PJJ, CROUS, and CADA, with whom the organization maintains multi-directional coordination.
