What APAJH 09 does

APAJH 09 (Association Pour Adultes et Jeunes Handicap\u00e9s de l\u2019Ari\u00e8ge) is a French non-profit association headquartered in Foix, Occitanie, operating 18 medicosocial establishments and services across the Ari\u00e8ge department and supporting more than 2,300 children and adults with disabilities. The organization is autonomous in managing its structures but affiliated with the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Nationale APAJH, which confers recognized public-utility status. Its service portfolio covers the full life course: specialized education and therapy for children (IME Pierre Bardou, DITEP de Saint-Girons, SESSAD), residential and medicalized care for adults (FAM de Carla Bayle, FAM de Saint-Girons, EANM de Mont\u00e9gut-Plantaurel, Foyer du Montcalm, Foyer d\u2019h\u00e9bergement du Couserans, UTHAA La Bastide de S\u00e9rou), vocational and sheltered employment (ESAT Vie Professionnelle across Mont\u00e9gut-Plantaurel and Mercenac, Entreprise Adapt\u00e9e Le Sabarthes), supported employment (CAP Emploi Ari\u00e8ge Comminges, APAJH 09 Prestations), ambulatory and home support (SAPSH grouping SAVS/SISPAH/SAMSAH), judicial protection (SMPM, ~460 protected adults), and a coordination/consortium layer (Communaut\u00e9 360 Ari\u00e8ge, CISELL for child welfare).

Revenue is generated almost entirely through multi-year contractual frameworks (CPOM) with the Conseil D\u00e9partemental de l\u2019Ari\u00e8ge and ARS Occitanie, supplemented by social-security and AGEFIPH funding for employment programs, plus limited commercial income from the Adapted Enterprise\u2019s sales of wine, foie gras and catering services via the Les Terroirs du Plantaurel brand and three retail outlets plus an e-commerce site. There is no proprietary software platform; the offering is human-delivered care, education, employment support and legal protection, with standard institutional IT (accounting, HR, quality, DPO) supporting back-office functions. Distribution is direct via the 18 establishments, with beneficiaries routed through the MDPH/CDAPH orientation system and employers accessed through CAP Emploi and inclusion partnerships with P\u00f4le Emploi, France Travail and Diversidays.
