What RéPPOP LyRRA does

RéPPOP LyRRA (Réseau de Prévention et de Prise en charge de l'Obésité en Pédiatrie Lyon-Rhône-Roannais-Ain) is a French non-profit association (Association loi 1901) founded in 2004 and headquartered at 36 rue Rachais, Lyon. It operates a city-hospital network coordinating pediatric overweight and obesity care across the Rhône, Ain, and Nord de la Loire (Roannais) departments, serving children and adolescents under 18 and their families through a 2-year pluriprofessional care pathway that integrates medical consultations, dietitian sessions, psychological support, adapted physical activity, and group workshops. The organization is bound by formal convention with the Centre Spécialisé de l'Obésité des Hospices Civils de Lyon (CSO HCL) and operates within the national Coordination Nationale des RéPPOP and APOP association frameworks.

The core product is the coordinated care pathway, supported by a coordination platform built on the Mon SISRA regional health information system, a family portal (Portail Famille, launched January 2026) for online registration, a 51-item resources library, Qualiopi-certified professional training programs, and the News'Pop Pro newsletter. A core team of 11 (medical coordinator, dietitians, psychologist, early childhood educator, coordination assistants, project manager, administrator) coordinates a broader network of 400+ trained healthcare professionals across the territory. Outcome data shows a 72% body-composition improvement rate among children followed, with ~7,000 children accompanied since 2004 and 1,200+ professionals trained cumulatively.

The business model is publicly funded: services are provided free of charge to families, with operating revenue derived from the Agence Régionale de Santé Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (ARS ARA) as part of regional pediatric obesity prevention policy, co-financed by the European Social Fund (FSE). Customer acquisition runs through dual channels — healthcare professional referrals via the Mon SISRA system and direct family self-referral via phone, email, contact form, and the family portal. Distribution is event-driven, with discovery webinars, training sessions across Lyon/Bourg-en-Bresse/Roanne, and annual territorial events (JTO, JTOP, Cafés des RéPPOPiens). Revenue is not publicly disclosed; no commercial sales, equity investors, or parent-subsidiary relationships exist.
