Out-of-school care scandal in Paris: City held accountable by families and caught out by recruitment failures
According to Google News LU FR, seventeen families have filed complaints against Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo and her first deputy Emmanuel Grégoire, as well as against the City of Paris, in connection with the scandal involving sexual violence in out-of-school care facilities.
In parallel, the city council is conducting an operation described as "anti-panic" aimed at parents, seeking to contain the anxiety generated by successive revelations.
The out-of-school care staff themselves find themselves in a situation of uncertainty. Questioned by franceinfo, several of them state they no longer know what they are "allowed to do" when faced with sexual violence. Training has since been put in place to attempt to fill this gap.
The matter also highlights deep flaws in the recruitment of activity coordinators. Before the Senate, a journalist testified that she was able to become an activity coordinator in "eight minutes", denouncing the lack of sufficient screening at recruitment.
The scandal, which affects extracurricular activities managed or supervised by the Paris municipality, raises questions about the City's responsibility in protecting children entrusted to its facilities. The complaints are aimed directly at the political leaders for their handling of the crisis and the organisational shortcomings that preceded it.
