        Chemical Submission in France

        Chemical subjugation, which involves administering a psychoactive substance to a person without their knowledge for the purpose of committing a criminal or offense, is a worrying phenomenon in France. Here are some recent figures illustrating its scale:

        • Increase in reported cases : In 2022, 1,229 substance-facilitated assaults (SFAs) were recorded, marking a 69.1% increase from the previous year.

        A significant presence on the ground

        Our prevention stands, staffed by dedicated volunteers, have become essential spaces at many events.
        More than just kiosks, these stands are real places for exchange, awareness, and information, where the safety and well-being of participants are at the heart of concerns. Our trained volunteers play a key role in preventing drug-related risks, including those associated with chemical submission and to the chemical vulnerability .

        Thanks to their expertise and commitment, we have been able to reach thousands of people, offering them practical advice , protection tools , and precise information to recognize and prevent these often invisible dangers. These initiatives not only help to strengthen individual safety, but also to create a more peaceful and responsible environment during festive events.

        Our concrete actions

        At each event, we distribute hundreds of free tests Drink Safe GHB Detector to detect the presence of undesirable substances in drinks. More than 500 tests And 500 glass condoms were distributed during our last interventions. In addition, we also offer breathalyzers to encourage responsible driving after the festivities, condoms to promote healthy and safe relationships, as well as earplugs to preserve participants' hearing when faced with loud music.

        We also provide our saliva tests And urine tests , which allow drug use to be detected on site, thus offering a quick and discreet solution to participants concerned about their safety. To go even further in prevention, we offer the Breathalyzer , a practical and fun tool which allows you to measure your blood alcohol level in a few seconds, while effectively raising awareness of the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol.

        These distributions and devices illustrate our deep commitment to safety and well-being of the party community, by offering concrete solutions to prevent risks related to drugs, alcohol, and risky behaviors. Our mission is to make every evening safer, while strengthening the autonomy and responsibility of participants.

        Our social media communications also play a crucial role. We raise public awareness of the various risks that can be encountered during festivities, and we regularly share tips for avoiding accidents related to drug and alcohol consumption.

        Our collaborations

        We are extremely proud of our close collaborations with major players in the nonprofit world. These strong partnerships not only allow us to expand our reach but also to strengthen the significant impact of our actions on the ground. During each event, our booths, completely free for participants, become focal points where information, prevention, and awareness-raising come together. Our activities, designed to be both educational and engaging, were warmly received by participants, demonstrating the relevance and effectiveness of our approach.

        We have made our presence felt at major and renowned events, including the Bass Couture festival, Ordinaire , Merci Beaucoup , Subtronic, Yaar , C la Teuf, Boat'n'Sound, Be, Undersound , and the Barathon stretching from Mulhouse to Strasbourg. Each presence reinforces our mission and our commitment to creating a safer and more informed festive environment for all.

        Our volunteers: The heart of our mission

        The volunteer team, comprised of nurses, nursing assistants, and chemistry graduates, is truly the beating heart of our organization. Lara, Cindy, Manon, Robin, Pauline, Martin, Ludovic, and Ewenn are not just names on a list, but passionate individuals who, thanks to their dedication, expertise, and communication skills, have greatly contributed to the success of our field missions.

        At each event, they engaged in numerous discussions with attendees, providing valuable information, answering questions, and dispelling myths surrounding alcohol and drug use. Their approach, combining professionalism and warmth, helped build a bond of trust with attendees. These interactions not only raised public awareness of the risks but also reinforced the idea that prevention is everyone's responsibility. Thanks to these discussions, many attendees left better informed and more aware of the issues surrounding their festive choices.
