PROJECT

Contextes & Thérapies

Paris

Contextes et Thérapies was set up by a group of professionals wanting to offer a place of support to families facing difficulties, following a referral by judges and child welfare professionals.

The aim of this project is to promote the application and development of family therapy to delay or avoid a child’s placement outside the home, to try and restore the family’s ability to cope.

The Erie Foundation has supported the association in raising awareness of this alternative approach amongst childcare and mental health professionals, to help develop affordable therapy for the most disadvantaged families.
