Kohesio
centre communal d' action sociale de la ville de ROUEN
_**Synthetic description of the project:**_ Through the FSE call for projects concerning "Integration and social inclusion of residents of City Policy neighborhoods", the CCAS of Rouen wishes to continue the activity of the Workshop which aims for the active inclusion of those groups furthest from employment in City Policy neighborhoods, by broadening its scope of action also to professional integration.  L’Atelier has existed since 2005 and is located at 18 Avenue des 4 cantons, in the priority district “Les Hauts de Rouen”. Initially intended as a collective action for social development, the Workshop now combines support for removing social barriers by aiming for professional integration. The activity helps people in very precarious situations to engage in a global integration approach by offering: * educational and socio-professional support, * an activity around furniture and solutions for furnishing their homes which are to be considered as support for mobilizing the public, * activities to promote and get people moving.  The structure is recognized as a "Social Relay", in complementarity with the Medical Social Centers (CMS) of the Department and the Social Work Units (UTS) of the Municipal Social Action Center. The participants welcomed are residents of Hauts de Rouen and Grammont and are beneficiaries of RSA and social minima.  Educational and socio-professional support is provided by a teaching team.      As part of the support for the beneficiaries of the Workshop, collective and specific actions are organized and allow the beneficiaries of the action to create social links, to have training and support time towards and in employment. The participation of beneficiaries in these specific integration and inclusion actions, linked to health, training and well-being, makes it possible in particular to remove the obstacles to encourage the emergence of desires to act and to be part of a path of social integration and inclusion.  _The collective actions are as follows:_ * The "Macadam and Co" Festival, Festival for and with street people, * The Solidarity Christmas of the City of Rouen, * Welcoming new residents, * The Users' Committee, * "Blue October" on fuel poverty, * Socializing outings, * Theatrical practice, * "Leisure Holidays" actions * Questions/Answers on Health, * Job search techniques
