FRANCE VICTIMES 38 APRESS

What FRANCE VICTIMES 38 APRESS does

FRANCE VICTIMES 38 APRESS is a French non-profit association (loi 1901) founded in 1990 and headquartered at 43 rue Victor Hugo in Vienne, Isère. The organization is officially approved (agréée) by the French Ministry of Justice and is a member of the national FRANCE VICTIMES and Citoyens et Justice federations. It provides free, confidential victim support services across the Isère department, delivered by a multidisciplinary team of approximately 7-11 staff including jurists, psychologists, social workers, and administrative personnel.

Its core service portfolio centers on four pillars: (1) victim reception and compassionate listening, (2) legal information on rights, complaint procedures, compensation, and appeals, (3) psychological support aimed at preventing post-traumatic stress, and (4) orientation to a network of specialized partners. Add-on modules include the Téléphone Grave Danger (TGD) and Bracelet Anti-Rapprochement (BAR) protective devices, temporary housing arrangements for perpetrators of domestic violence, monthly domestic violence support groups, the 'Tasse de thé' bi-monthly group for parents of child victims of sexual offences, and weekly relaxation sessions. Court accompaniment through criminal hearings is also provided. There is no proprietary technology platform; service delivery is human-led and based on physical presence.

The business model is grant-funded public-sector revenue. Operations are financed by the Ministry of Justice, the Prefecture of Isère, the Department of Isère, and a small group of municipalities (including Vienne, Condrieu, Villefontaine, and Bièvre et Rhône). All services are delivered free of charge to beneficiaries. Distribution is direct, through eight physical service locations across the Isère department including dedicated bureaux at the Vienne Tribunal Judiciaire, Commissariat, and Gendarmerie stations, supported by community outreach via awareness events, ciné-débats, and recurring press coverage in Dauphiné Libéré and L'Essor.
