Question 13762 — young people

Summary

Ms. Sylvie Ferrer draws the attention of the Minister Delegate to the Minister of Labor and Solidarity and the Minister of National Education, responsible for vocational education and training and apprenticeship, to the reduction in the budget allocated to local missions provided for in the finance law for 2026. This reduction of approximately 7% to 8% of the budget for local missions, initially announced at 13%, has consequences significant, weakening the professional integration of young people and making it difficult to support young people towards employment and training. In fact, each year, local missions support more than 1.1 million young people aged 16 to 25 in their efforts to access employment, training and autonomy. At the same time, network structures are seeing a significant increase in demand for support. From September 2025, the number of first receptions of young people on local missions has increased by around 8% and even by 10% for minors, a sign of a growing need for support in the face of difficulties in professional and social integration. In this context, the reduction in resources allocated to the network appears to be in contradiction with the increase in needs. Several players in the sector are already warning of the possible consequences: reduction in reception capacities, extension of support times, financial weakening of certain structures and job cuts potentially reaching more than a thousand full-time equivalents nationally. Beyond professional integration, these budget cuts also risk affecting overall support for young people, particularly in terms of mental health. Local missions are in fact increasingly more confronted with situations of psychological fragility among the young people they support. Many of them wish to develop the presence of psychologists or psychosocial support professionals in order to meet these growing needs. However, the reduction in funding compromises this recruitment and limits the intervention capacities of the structures. In a context where young people face difficulties increased access to employment, training and autonomy, the weakening of local missions risks weakening an essential link in public integration policies. The MP therefore questions the Minister on the consistency between this reduction and the stated objective of supporting youth and promoting the professional integration of young people. How can the Government justify a reduction in mission resources? local even though the support needs of young people continue to increase? She asks her if she plans to make employment and the mental health of young people a budgetary adjustment variable.
