520 _aSocial policies in Mayotte, a French department since 2011, have been both institutionalised and decentralised, and child protection in particular. Long ruled on by order, this public policy was implemented in Mayotte at the end of the 1990s but with no connection to the long-standing work of public and private players, as was the case in Metropolitan France. Since social child aid was decentralised in the 2000s, child protection has been a heated source of tensions between the state and departments, notably as concerns the relevance of opening maisons d’enfants à caractère social (MECS, children’s homes of a social nature), commonly referred to as “homes”. Two such “homes” will finally be opened in 2019 with the financial support of the Mayotte department. This article begins with an overview of the issues involved in blocking such a project for reasons of resistance to the normalisation of social policies. It then goes on to document the phases in the departmental council’s partial and gradual turnaround towards the opening of this form of collective accommodation.
