At La Sortie, our thrift shop Aux joyaux cachés is a precious space created for all the women in the residence—many of whom arrive with very little, sometimes with nothing at all.

Managed by a dedicated participant, supported by a volunteer, and enriched daily by the contributions of other residents, this shop is a true reflection of solidarity. 💛

Beyond clothing, it is a place for learning and empowerment. Through their involvement in activities, committees, and community life, participants develop their social skills, build confidence, and grow in autonomy. They learn to communicate, collaborate, resolve conflicts in healthy ways, take on responsibilities, and create positive connections.

Every small step and every success helps build a strong sense of competence and belonging.

In a safe and caring environment, they gradually regain confidence in themselves, discover their strengths, and move toward a sustainable social reintegration.

We are deeply proud to support them on this journey and to celebrate each step toward a more autonomous, fulfilling, and hopeful life. 🌿💫
