We are an association (nonprofit/private) gathering three community centres, which is located in the conurbation of Lille (Northern France). We are a community-based organisation that is providing services and developing activities for the benefit of 1900 families living in a multi-ethnic environment : daycare nurseries, parent-child homes, after-school clubs and day camps offering leisure and sports activities to young people, cultural and educational trips for children and disadvantaged families, community counselling and advisory services for local residents, help from social workers, etc. ACSW has also widened its activity in 1983, with the creation of the SSIAD providing home care service for elderly people. Finally, in 2009 the local futsal club joined the association to offer more indoor football activities to the local residents and create positive change through various solidarity initiatives.
