📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

LA MJC D'AMBOISE interested in intercultural, sport, and many other exchange topics for young people. We are open for partnerships!
The Association "LA MJC D'AMBOISE", affiliated to the Regional Federation of MJC (FRMJC) and to the
Federation of Centre Val de Loire social centers, is known at the local scale for its democratization activity.
access to leisure, holidays and artistic and cultural practices and more particularly towards young people.
However, the action of the Association is much more diversified since the MJC of Amboise is also an
International Center for Stays, an accommodation center affiliated with the “UNAT” and “Ethic Etapes”
networks and a Social Center.
The Youth sector is therefore set up within the “walls” of the Social Center located in one of the priority
districts of Amboise: La Verrerie.
The youth sector offers educational and leisure actions on after school and out of school times for
adolescents aged from 10 to 17 years old, in the territory of Amboise and the Community of Municipalities
of Val d'Amboise (CCVA).
A structuring of the service has to make possible to be regularly present on the whole territory and to
propose accessible by the greatest number projects ensuring consistency with the reality of this
territory.

The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
