Groupe Ares (Association pour la Réinsertion Economique et Sociale)

ARES is the first social insertion association in Ile de France (Paris Region). Its main vocation is to favor the professional social insertion of largely excluded people (homeless, youth without qualification, handicapped people, and isolated people) by offering them a job and an adequate social support. The group, which has been carried by the Ares Association since 1991, spreads its social project through 11 institutions in Ile-de-France. Each institution is managed by a social contractor who is responsible for the projects achievement and guaranteeing its economical sustainability. In 2016 ARES has proposed a social and professional insertion pathway to 646 people in situation of great exclusion and has realized a turnover of 21 M€, thanks to the professional services provided to companies in 4 different sectors: Logistics / Circular economy / Ecologic transportation of goods/ IT activities.
