This experience will give the opportunity to the volunteer to get engaged in a project, to contribute to his/her French level, give him/her autonomy and independence, a maturity in her/his personal and professional life. Amis de Jéricho is an association that deals with people from the street, prison, hospital, with social and professional difficulties. It wants to help to the reintegration of these people. With its four sites, it may offers, in addition to its missions, workshops, focus groups and cultural activities. Administrative assistance is also offered so that people in difficulties can find training or an accommodation.
