Women Safe and Children, born in Saint-Germain-en-Laye (Yvelines), received the medal on Monday evening from the society of members of the Legion of Honor. The association supports women and minors who are victims of all forms of violence.

Since 2022, the association has already trained more than 5,000 people in Yvelines, including 400 police officers. The DAPAT endowment fund, created three years ago, finances associations helping women in distress.
