LES PAPILLONS BLANCS de la Colline

What LES PAPILLONS BLANCS de la Colline does

Les Papillons Blancs de la Colline is a French non-profit association (loi de 1901) headquartered at 155 bureaux de la Colline, Saint-Cloud, that delivers social, educational, residential, and professional integration services for people with intellectual disabilities across the Hauts-de-Seine department. Founded in 1949 and affiliated with UNAPEI, the association accompanies 1,125 people through 48 medico-social establishments spanning the full life-cycle — IME (Instituts Médico-Éducatifs), ESAT (Établissements et Services d'Aide par le Travail), foyers d'hébergement, SAVS, SESSAD, day hospitals, CAJ, and specialized units including a dedicated Prader-Willi dispositif. Its beneficiaries are children, adolescents, and adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities, with pain points addressed spanning educational integration, therapeutic care, vocational training, residential housing, and social inclusion.

The association operates without proprietary technology platforms, applications, or commercial software products. Service delivery is built on direct human intervention by approximately 870 staff and external intervenants combining educators, caregivers, medical and paramedical professionals, and vocational supervisors. Programs are augmented with a visible sports-inclusion agenda — unified football, para-rugby, Special Olympics participation, and the annual Course des Héros solidarity run — and a network of partnerships with Special Olympics France, Racing 92, Stade Français Paris, O CAYOLAR, and community venues such as Rosa Bonheur des Buttes Chaumont. Recent operational moves include the transfer of ESAT activities to a new site at 3 place Papillon in Clamart effective July 1, 2026, and an HR-function reorganization that created three multi-establishment HR manager positions.

Revenue is generated almost exclusively through public funding under the French medico-social (CCN66) framework — allocations from Assurance Maladie and the Hauts-de-Seine departmental council, with no commercial pricing to beneficiaries. Supplementary funding is raised via donations, apprenticeship tax (taxe d'apprentissage) contributions from companies routed through the SOLTÉA platform, and solidarity events such as the Course des Héros. Distribution is direct-to-beneficiary through the 48 establishments, with referral access via social services, healthcare pathways, and the broader UNAPEI disability network. Governance is led by Directeur Général Olivier Mira with a president and board.
