Abstract

Public health care the example of Tours The phenomena of AIDS, drugs, and the psychological effects of economic insecurity have generated new actors at the crossroads of public health care and social action in Tours. Solicited by local non-profit and humanitarian groups, the town council has become involved in an emergency/palliative care policy which has had a strong public impact as well as rid the streets of those who are suffering. The uneasiness about drugs felt by inhabitants of social housing neighbourhoods legitimizes social work combining health care initiatives and delinquancy prevention. But their implementation is difficult, revealing how public health care resists becoming fully-governed by local policies.
