Tremplin travail Anjou face a difficult year due to the crisis

For Tremplin Travail Anjou (Tta), an association in charge of the reinsertion of jobless, 2009 was also synonymous of crisis. Tta, who got 60 000 hours of work in 2008, recorded only 50 000 last year and consecuently suffered a loss of 28 000 €.

Hopefully, the association limited the damages thanks to exceptionnal public subsidies, but those could not be the same this year. The national state, the Maine et Loire council and Angers Loire métropole announced restrictions of their financial aids from 100 000 € to 60 000 €. These are losses Tta will have to compensate.

Tremplin travail Anjou (located 50 Lionnaise street, Angers) go with 160 persons per year during periods ranging from 18 to 24 months. "A third find again a job or a training course", says the manager of Tta, Philippe Bliguet, mostly in houseworks or gardening.
