"When parents hope they offer their children the best education they show an excess of confidence."

Jean de La Bruyère

Social work: the first courageous step to adulthood.

Social work is a tool to help people who are in a situation of social difficulty. For this task the CCG has recourse to the professionalism of the association "Passage", based in Annecy.

This association works as well on the territory of Annemasse and now also in the canton of St. Julien en Genevois.

The CCG is the intermediary between the communes on its territory and reports any need to the association.

Sylvia, Virginie and Marc are the street workers of the association « Passage ». They are entrusted with the educational mission to help the young people in difficulty to face the crisis of unemployment, lack of training, bad health and a psychological or family marginalisation. Their meetings are discreet either by contacting them by telephone or in their office in 1 Passage de la Ferronnerie in St. Julien.

To contact them : 
Sylvia, 06 24 87 95 12
Virginie : 06 24 87 95 13
Marc : 06 24 87 94 92

Another new way of street work is the J'BUS.

With their small van the street workers can reach anywhere. This minibus is equipped so that meetings can take place in a friendly atmosphere. Do not hesitate to contact them.

You will find the J'BUS in Collonges (parking of the Lycée St Vincent): Wednesday between 12 and 1:30p.m. (except during school holidays). The bus circulates as well in the communes of Viry and Valleiry.
