Question 14295 — young people

Summary

Mrs. Florence Joubert draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and Disabled People to the problem of the national framework for collective reception of minors. Indeed, youth structures are today increasingly called upon to welcome young people from child welfare (ASE), due to the saturation of traditional care systems and the increase in needs in the territories. This development results in increased pressure on collective reception of minors as well as on family reception systems in the youth sector, which must now respond to complex situations, particularly in contexts of emergency, transition or interruption of course. Thus, although falling within distinct fields of intervention, the sectors of child protection and that of youth and sports appear today to be closely linked in practice and therefore called upon to work in a complementary manner. In this context, certain youth structures are developing specific approaches, adapted to welcoming young people from child protection, relying on the levers specific to non-formal education, while strengthening their supervision and security capacities. These initiatives reflect the emergence of a real specialization within the youth sector, making it possible to provide complementary responses to social and medico-social measures, while contributing to the continuity of the paths of minors in care. Furthermore, the recent evolution of the legislative and regulatory framework relating to so-called “exceptional” reception calls for particular attention. Indeed, if the law of February 5, 2022 relating to the protection of children initiated recognition of these reception arrangements by opening the possibility of using youth structures for minors entrusted to the ASE, the implementing decrees subsequently issued were suspended by the Council of State, in particular due to supervision deemed insufficient. However, the current absence of a stabilized national framework on the modalities of recourse to these receptions poses a legal and administrative uncertainty on the youth structures which are part of these approaches, which slows down the development of these initiatives. Thus, she questions him on the necessary clarification of the regulatory framework applicable to short-term stays in collective reception of minors for young people from the ASE, on the conditions of legal security of these systems, as well as on the need to structure complementarity between child protection actors and those in the youth and sports sector.
