Intern

The St-Barthélemy Foundation aims to welcome and support adults who notably have intellectual, psychological disabilities or autism spectrum disorders. It promotes their self-determination, autonomy, and social participation by involving them in decisions that concern them. It thus contributes to their full place in society, economically, culturally, and as citizens.

Firmly oriented towards the future while taking into account its past actions, the Foundation projects itself into a modern and inclusive "to come" where the evolving needs of the people welcomed, their aspirations, and personal choices are at the center of the attention of all staff.
