Our story

Following the formation of the Psychology degree specialised in Childhood and Adolescence and ABA, researchers, the Professor Jean-Claude Darcheville and the Doctor in Psychology, Vinca Rivière implemented the Association Pas à Pas in Lille, in 2000. The researchers were issued from the URECA laboratory (Research Unit on the evolution of behaviours and learning).

The Association progressively developed its actions. This enabled, on one hand to help parents and professionals cope, in a more effective manner, the everyday life of children presenting Developmental or Behavioural Disorders. On the other hand, the Association facilitated the training of psychology students on theoretical as well as practical grounds.

Its main mission is to allow every family, professional and student to take advantage of the benefits that result from Behaviour Analysis and to palliate the problems encountered in the every-day education of the children.
