What PEP 71 does

PEP 71 (legal name Les PEP71) is a French non-profit association (Association Loi 1901) headquartered in Chalon-sur-Saône that delivers social and medico-social services across the Saône-et-Loire department. Founded in the early twentieth century and operating for more than 100 years, the association supports vulnerable populations — including children with disabilities or developmental disorders, adults facing social exclusion, mental health challenges, domestic violence, or disabilities, and their families — through two principal divisions: Pôles Enfants (early intervention, autism support, parental support, child protection, and school inclusion) and Pôles Adultes (housing, work integration, therapeutic coordination, social inclusion, and support for victims of domestic violence). The association also operates ESAT sheltered workshops providing horticulture, green-space maintenance, meal services, subcontracting work, a 950 m² Ressourcerie second-hand goods store, and seminar room rentals.

Services are delivered across more than 30 facilities in Chalon-sur-Saône, Mâcon, Louhans, Montceau-les-Mines, Autun, Le Creusot, Paray-le-Monial, Tournus, and Saint-Rémy, staffed by 101–250 multidisciplinary professionals including specialized educators, psychologists, neuropsychologists, psychomotor therapists, speech therapists, and social workers. Specialized dispositifs include SESSAD DI-TC and SESSAD DA, CAMSP, EMAPT, EDE, UEMA, UEEA, IME l'Orbize, MECS, PCPE, CHRS, ACT, IML, SAMSAH, GEM, Habitat Inclusif, and the newly launched Dispositif d'Auto Régulation (DAR) for middle-school students with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Revenue is generated primarily through public funding from the Agence Régionale de Santé (ARS) and social security reimbursements (at 100% coverage for qualifying beneficiaries), supplemented by commercial ESAT activities, annual membership dues (€20 adult / €2 minor / €100 corporate), and tax-deductible donations (66% deduction) processed in part via HelloAsso. The organization is governed by a Board of Directors with Serge Fichet serving as Directeur général.
