Association de lutte contre la toxicomanie

What Association de lutte contre la toxicomanie does

Association de lutte contre la toxicomanie (ALT) is a French non-profit association (loi 1901) founded in 1972 in Strasbourg, operating across the Bas-Rhin department. It celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2022. Its mission is the prevention, treatment, and harm-reduction of addictive behaviors (toxicomanie), serving individuals struggling with substance use disorders as well as their families.

ALT organizes its activity around four operational poles: a youth outreach network of more than 35 PAEJ (Point Accueil Ecoute Jeunes) sites spread across Bas-Rhin; an ambulatory pole delivering consultations, medical and psychological care, and harm-reduction services; a residential pole providing inpatient or transitional accommodation for patients in care; and a Pôle Famille offering dedicated support to relatives of people affected by addiction. The clinical workforce includes 17 psychologists plus a head of service. Services are delivered free of charge to users.

The business model is that of a publicly funded health and social-services non-profit: ALT does not charge end users but is financed primarily through the ARS (Agence Régionale de Santé) and other public institutional partners, operating within the regulatory framework established by the Convention HèTAGE signed in September 2018 with the ARS. It is also federated within the FNESAA at national level. Leadership is held by Director Mélinda Huber and President FERARD. Free service delivery, combined with public grant dependency, makes ALT a public-policy operator rather than a commercial enterprise, and its expansion is constrained by administrative authorization cycles and budget allocations.
