What it is

sortirdeprison.org is the website of SPILE, a non-profit public welfare association registered in France. Its core mission is to help incarcerated people and former prisoners re-integrate into society through employment support, and reduce recidivism rates. Founded by a number of well-known French enterprises and research institutions, the association has official cooperation with the French prison administration, and currently only provides services in areas around Paris, France.

Core Features and Services

The association offers two core support programs for its target groups:

• The ITINERIS program provides full-cycle support from incarceration to after release. It starts one-on-one career planning, resume editing and interview simulation while participants are still in prison, helps applicants apply for commutation and parole, and continues to follow up on issues related to career adaptation and daily life after release.
• The OPUS program targets people who have already been released, providing one-on-one support for career rebuilding.

In addition, the association also conducts awareness training on the prison environment for enterprises, organizes in-prison job fairs, and acts as a connecting bridge between enterprises, prison authorities and program participants.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages: This organization has a mature operating model, deep cooperation with the official prison system and multiple leading French enterprises, and a coherent support process. 2024 data shows that 70% of program participants successfully obtained employment or training opportunities, proving its outstanding practical results. The whole service is also completely free for participants.

Disadvantages: The association only serves a small number of areas around Paris, France, and only provides services in French. It does not support users from other regions, so its service scope is very limited.
