ASSOCIATION TUTELAIRE DE LA MEUSE

What ASSOCIATION TUTELAIRE DE LA MEUSE does

Association Tutélaire de la Meuse (ATM) is a non-profit association governed by French law 1901, founded on November 26, 1977, and headquartered in Bar-le-Duc, France. The organization delivers court-ordered judicial protection services for vulnerable adults within the Meuse department (department 55) under prefectural authorization (most recent Arrêté n°2010-76 du 27 septembre 2010). Its three core service lines are: (1) the Mandataire Judiciaire à la Protection des Majeurs (MJPM), which exercises guardianship (tutelle), curatorship (curatelle), safeguarding of justice, judicial accompaniment measures, and family habilitation; (2) the Service d'Accompagnement à la Vie Sociale (SAVS), a social-life accompaniment service for adults with disabilities, originally launched as the "appartement social" in 2008 and formally recognized as a SAVS in 2018; and (3) the ISTF (Information Soutien aux Tuteurs Familiaux), which provides information, document templates, and technical guidance to family members exercising non-professional protective mandates.

ATM serves three principal beneficiary groups: adults whose faculties are impaired due to illness, disability, or aging and who require court-ordered legal protection; family guardians (tuteurs et curateurs familiaux) seeking technical support in fulfilling their legal duties; and adults with disabilities residing in the SAVS social apartment. Beneficiaries are reached exclusively through institutional channels — court mandates from the Juge des Contentieux de la Protection, referrals from social services, healthcare institutions, and CNAM — supplemented by ATM's website, downloadable document resources, telephone helplines, and participation in local events such as the 2022 Interm'Aides55 caregivers' forum.

The business model is entirely non-commercial. ATM is financed through public institutional funding allocated by departmental and government authorities (DDETSPP, DREETS Grand-Est, Département de la Meuse) in exchange for delivering mandated protection services. Services are not billed to end users; pricing is not publicly disclosed. ATM does not develop or sell technology products and operates through three physical branch offices (Bar-le-Duc as headquarters and ISTF service, Verdun, and Commercy). Notable non-operational distinctions include its pioneering role as the first signatory in France of an RGPD-compliant archiving charter with the Meuse departmental archives (January 2019) and CNIL validation of its GDPR compliance program (April 2021). The organization is a member of the Fédération Nationale des Associations Tutélaires (FNAT) and is governed by a Board of Directors with Joanna Portal as Directrice (legal representative) and Colette Feron Grenouilleau as Présidente.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves9 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• Croix-Rouge française: Major French social services operator running judicial protection mandates, social accommodation services, and family support programs across all departments, directly overlapping with ATM's MJPM, SAVS, and ISTF service portfolio as part of a much broader service mix.
• APF France Handicap: National disability-rights and services organization that supports adults with disabilities including through accommodation and protection-adjacent services; an adjacent ecosystem participant rather than a direct tutelary competitor, but operates in the same beneficiary population.
• UNAPEI: National federation representing parents and associations serving people with intellectual disabilities; many of its member organizations provide guardianship and social accommodation services analogous to ATM's MJPM/SAVS offering, but at national scale and with a disability-specific versus generalist mandate.

Regional players

• ADAPEI de la Meuse: Local partner organization for people with intellectual disabilities in Meuse, co-organizing caregiver forums with ATM. It addresses a related population (disabled adults in Meuse) through advocacy and accommodation rather than court-ordered guardianship, making it a regional complement rather than direct competitor.

Direct peers

• UDAF Meuse (Union Départementale des Associations Familiales de la Meuse): UDAF networks in France commonly provide MJPM and family guardian support services under the same French Code de l'Action Sociale et des Familles framework as ATM. The UDAF Meuse operates in the same department with overlapping judicial-protection and family-tutelary missions, making it the closest direct functional peer in the same territory.
