APA beneficiaries at home: blurred base (V1)

These open data are from the Individual APA and ASH data (RI-APA-ASH 2017). This operation is a collection of individual administrative data on the beneficiaries of the APA and the Social Assistance to Accommodation (ASH) in France from the local authorities that manage these benefits. The 2017 IR-APA collected data from 96 departments in 2018-2019 — only 4 were unable to transmit the required information, as Mayotte was not included in the transaction. The database available here is an anonymised extract of IR-APA, which covers APA beneficiaries living at home and paid in December 2017. The data has been reprocessed and blurred to ensure the confidentiality of individual information and to prevent any indirect re-identification. The information collected and disseminated in this blurred database covers the socio-demographic characteristics of the home-based APA beneficiaries paid for the month of December 2017, their level of dependency, their resources, the amounts of their support plans and information on the content of those plans. The variables of amounts have been “floated” (notified APA, amount under the departmental council, amount of the beneficiary’s financial contribution, resources within the meaning of the APA, etc.). These blurred values are close to actual values and lead to results comparable to those produced from the exhaustive data (see attached documentation). Researchers can use this blurred database for their preliminary work. Nevertheless, DREES strongly advises the use of the comprehensive database disseminated to CASD for the finalisation of their work and publications. The format of the database (only the names of the blurred variables are added a suffix “_FLOU”, etc.) is identical to that of the comprehensive database securely accessible, so that the scripts of the treatments developed on the blurred basis also function on the exhaustive basis. See, on the CASD website: [https://www.casd.eu/source/remontees-individuelles-des-demandeurs-et-beneficiaires-de-lapa-et-de-lash/](https://www.casd.eu/source/remontees-individuelles-des-demandeurs-et-beneficiaires-de-lapa-et-de-lash/) The data uploaded also makes it possible to run the Autonomix micro simulation model, whose code is available here:<https://gitlab.com/DREES_code/public/modeles/autonomix>, to simulate home-loaded remains. Version of the database: v1 was posted on 23/12/2012. To quote the source: “Source: Drees, RI-APA-ASH 2017, blurred base (v1 of 23/12/2021); Treatments: /author/” * * *
