What UDAF du Jura does

UDAF du Jura (Union Départementale des Associations Familiales du Jura) is a French non-profit association (loi 1901) operating as the official departmental representative of family associations in the Jura department of France. Founded as part of the national UNAF network (established 1945), it serves two primary constituencies: the 73,000 families residing in the Jura department (through policy representation and advocacy), and approximately 3,000 families and vulnerable persons annually (through direct service delivery). The organization also coordinates 49 affiliated member associations and 2,200 member families.

The organization's core service portfolio comprises 15 distinct programs grouped across: (1) legal protection — guardianship/curatorship of adults, minor-asset guardianship, future protection mandates, family guardian support; (2) budget and consumer — MJAGBF (judicial budget management), MASP (personalized social accompaniment), AEB (educational budget support), Point Conseil Budget (free budget advisory), guaranteed personal microcredit (€300–€8,000), and consumer information and defense; (3) housing — social housing accompaniment and Habitat Inclusif (inclusive shared housing); and (4) family support — Lire et faire lire (intergenerational reading), Parrainage de proximité (mentoring), and the Childhood and Family Medal secretariat.

UDAF du Jura does not operate a technology platform; services are delivered in person through a headquarters in Lons-le-Saunier and three antenna offices in Dole, Champagnole, and Saint-Claude. The revenue model is entirely subsidy-driven: all services are free to beneficiaries, funded by public mandates and co-financing from the Conseil Départemental du Jura, CAF (Caisse d'Allocations Familiales), MSA, and other public institutions. The organization is governed by volunteer family representatives and professional staff, and sits within the national UNAF ecosystem alongside strategic partners including Interfédération PJM (FNAT, UNAF, UNAPEI), Action Logement, FOPH, and Point de Contact.
