What CRIAVS does

CRIAVS Île-de-France (Centre Ressources pour Intervenants auprès d'Auteurs de Violences Sexuelles Île-de-France) is a public healthcare resource center established in 2018 as a service department of Hôpitaux Paris Est Val-de-Marne, a French public health establishment located at 14 rue du Val d'Osne, Saint-Maurice. The center provides training, clinical support, documentation, prevention programs, and research dissemination to professionals working with perpetrators of sexual violence across the healthcare, judicial, prison, social, medico-social, and public safety sectors. Its service portfolio is organized around six axes: professional networking, clinical support (interventions, supervision, practice exchange), training programs, documentation and information services, prevention programs, and research dissemination. Core offerings include multidisciplinary formations on topics such as incest, pedophilia, digital-era sexual violence, and court-ordered care; structured support groups for spouses and parents of offenders; clinical sharing spaces and reading groups; the S.T.O.P. prevention helpline (0 806 23 10 63); the 'Qu'en dit-on' mediation tool; and the Violences-Sexuelles.info reference media platform.

The underlying technology footprint is minimal: the public-facing website runs on WordPress CMS, with multilingual versions (French, English, Spanish, German, Italian, Japanese) and no proprietary software, API, or AI/ML capabilities disclosed. Service delivery is conducted through on-site training at CRIAVS facilities in Saint-Maurice, mobile team deployments for complex cases, and video conference for remote participation such as the monthly reading group.

The business model is fully public-sector: all services are provided free of charge (Gratuit) to professionals, with no registration or participation fees. Revenue is not commercially generated; the entity is funded through French public healthcare channels as a department of a public health establishment, with no private shareholders, external investors, or disclosed funding rounds. Customer segments are institutional rather than commercial — healthcare professionals are the primary segment, followed by judicial professionals, prison and probation staff, and social/educational professionals. The organization operates as a core member of the FFCRIAVS national federation, institutionalizing coordination with other regional CRIAVS centers across France, and maintains partnerships with AFC, SPIP 91, 1Vie, Lexbase, and Pedo.help.
