About L'ADAPT

LADAPT is a non-profit association, recognized as being of public utility. With nearly 110 establishments and services for support, training, integration, schooling or care, LADAPT supports over 19,000 people in France each year. Since 1997, it has organized the Week for the employment of disabled people, which evolved in 2015 into the European Week for the employment of disabled people / European Disability Employment Week (SEEPH / EDEW). In 2014, LADAPT created Ouverture de Champ, evening events that address disability differently, through the prisms of image and humor. Each year, events are held in French cinemas to change mindsets and foster public debate. At the end of 2015, LADAPT launched its first public awareness campaign: #KillLaBetise. It adopted a deliberately biting tone and attacked prejudices and received ideas about people with disabilities. In this vein, in 2017, with #SANSLIMITES, the association demonstrated that disability is an obstacle like any other and does not prevent one from living one's life without limits. This campaign highlights ordinary men and women with disabilities, young and old, all driven by the same desire to live their daily lives and their autonomy passionately. Thanks to the 300 volunteers of its Success Network, LADAPT offers genuine civic support to disabled people in their job search. As part of its associative project, LADAPT intends to offer innovative solutions to the needs of people with disabilities to facilitate their social and professional integration at every stage of life. LADAPT remains true to its mission started 90 years ago: to support disabled people in their ordinary struggle, that of their daily lives, so that we can "Live together, equal and different".
