Centre de Guidance Infantile

What Centre de Guidance Infantile does

Centre de Guidance Infantile is a child guidance service within Association Sauvegarde, a non-profit association under French law (loi 1901) headquartered in Boé, Lot-et-Garonne, France. Founded in 1936, the association delivers psychological guidance, developmental support, and therapeutic counseling for children and families across the entire Lot-et-Garonne department through multidisciplinary teams of social workers, educators, and healthcare professionals.

The Centre de Guidance Infantile operates within the Pôle Enfance et Famille (Childhood and Family pole), one of three organizational divisions alongside Pôle Santé et Insertion (Health and Integration) and Pôle Protection et Handicap (Protection and Disability). It sits alongside related services including family mediation, foster placement (Service de placement familial), open-environment educational action (AEMO — 795 annual authorized measures), specialized prevention, juvenile criminal reparation, unaccompanied minor support (DAMMIE), and young-adult transition support (DAJMA). The broader association's service portfolio spans addiction care (CSAPA, CAARUD, CJC), asylum-seeker housing (CADA, HUDA, CPH), disability services (SAVS, ESAT, MJPM), victim support (France Victimes 47), and therapeutic housing (ACT, Lits Halte Soins Santé).

The organization operates on a non-commercial model: services are delivered free of charge to beneficiaries and funded primarily through French departmental and governmental subsidies, with service delivery formally delegated by the Conseil Départemental de Lot-et-Garonne and the Juges des Enfants. Distribution is purely direct through physical service locations across Agen, Boé, Bon-Encontre, Nérac, Villeneuve/Lot, and surrounding communes, with no digital product, app, or commercial channel. Marketing is limited to institutional communications via the sauvegarde47.fr website, social media, and earned local press coverage.
