Solution
The association offers to support people as soon as they leave the rehabilitation center, in order to continue the work initiated by the center and keep the difficult period between these two environments as short as possible. The aim is to enable these people to bounce back quickly towards a fulfilled life.
The social support offered covers all aspects of the life of a person who becomes disabled after an accident: returning home, mobility, employment, social life, access to rights, self-esteem... The association's social workers, who co-construct the individual support with each beneficiary, act as facilitators and coordinators of reconstruction paths.

Video project on the importance of sport
Sport is a central element in the reconstruction of a person who has become motorically disabled. It helps to maintain good health, regain self-confidence, set new goals, create social links and (re)become independent. We wanted to launch this video capsule project to convey the importance of sport and its practice!
The five themes covered:
- Sport for independence
- Sport for ageing well
- Sport for mental health
- Sport to change attitudes
- Sport to make your dreams come true (hello Paralympics!)
To be seen (and seen again), whether you're concerned by disability or not.

This year's season of sports adventure breaks is off to a flying start! In all, more than 20 stays will take place from May to October, departing from all Comme les Autres branches.

These stays are essential in the support program we offer, energizing the reconstruction of people who have become disabled after an accident.
Each stay is entirely free of charge for participants, with costs covered by the association thanks to donations.
