It is based on a qualitative survey conducted between March and June 2021 in emergency accommodation facilities and social hotels managed by Samusocial of Paris. The study shows how specific gender and intercultural social relations impact social intervention and the implementation of social policies. Social intervention in emergency shelters is more specifically aimed at helping households access so-called “independent” housing, which is conditioned by multiple criteria, both objective (legal status, sufficient resources, professional activity, etc.) and more implicit, related to the acquisition of a set of skills and attitudes (budget management, respect for neighbours, daily life organisation with children, etc.) However, the social support offered by social workers to single-parent households covers various and contradictory gender registers. They can be interpreted sometimes in terms of reproduction of traditional gender roles, sometimes in terms of gender emancipation.L’article explore les spécificités de l’intervention sociale auprès de mères seules avec enfants accueillies dans des structures d’hébergement d’urgence. Il s’appuie sur une enquête qualitative menée entre mars et juin 2021 au sein des structures d’hébergement d’urgence gérées par le Samusocial de Paris. L’enquête rend compte de la façon dont les pratiques des intervenantes sociales auprès de ce public sont traversées par des rapports sociaux spécifiques de genre et d’interculturalité. L’intervention sociale en centre d’hébergement d’urgence vise plus spécifiquement l’accès des ménages au logement dit « autonome », conditionné par des critères multiples. Certains sont très précis : autorisation de séjour, ressources suffisantes, activité professionnelle, etc. D’autres sont plus implicites, liés à l’acquisition d’un ensemble de savoir-faire et savoir-être : gestion de son budget, respect des voisins, organisation de sa vie quotidienne avec les enfants, etc. L’accompagnement social proposé par les travailleuses sociales recouvre, auprès des femmes en situation monoparentales accueillies, des registres d’intervention divers et contradictoires. Ils peuvent être interprétés tantôt en termes de reproduction des rôles traditionnels de genre, tantôt en termes d’émancipation.Cairn free access
