Udapei 62

What Udapei 62 does

Udapei 62 is a French non-profit association (association loi 1901) headquartered in Beuvry, Pas-de-Calais, operating within the Social and Solidarity Economy sector. Founded in 1960 as a federation of parent associations, it is the departmental territorial body of the Unapei national parent movement and serves as the coordinating federation for 7 local Apei associations plus the GAM (Groupement Arras/Montreuil). Its mission centers on defending the rights of persons with intellectual disabilities and supporting their families across the Pas-de-Calais department.

The organization directly manages two specialized residential facilities (Maisons d'Accueil Spécialisée, MAS): MAS Le Domaine de Rachel in Eperlecques (opened 2006) and MAS Le Domaine des Berges de la Sensée in Croisilles (opened 2008), which together employ 215 salaried staff and provide permanent residential and day care for adults with profound intellectual disabilities, including those with autism spectrum disorders. A 2017 expansion added 8 autism-specific places at Eperlecques, and a 2015 modular 10-place temporary reception unit was attached to Croisilles. In 2019, Udapei 62 launched DASMO (Dispositif Expérimental d'Accompagnement et de soins en Milieu Ouvert), an experimental community-based care service for severely disabled adults living at home. The federation as a whole encompasses 90 establishments, welcomes 5,000 persons, and represents 1,500 members, supported by 2,660 professionals across all affiliated entities.

Revenue is generated through government subsidies, social security contributions, and public funding for disability services, with operations authorized and funded under the French medico-social framework (ARS Hauts-de-France). There is no commercial pricing; services are provided to persons with disabilities through publicly funded facilities. The organization is governed by a board of volunteer family administrators and a General Director, with no equity ownership. In 2021, Udapei 62 divested its MJPM (mandataire judiciaire) guardianship service to ATPC, refocusing on its core residential and federated support activities.
