L'Ouvre Porte organizes the accommodation of homeless people through several programs: citizen hosting, emergency nights (Suspended Nights) and homes for mothers and their children (Suspended Homes). For each of these programs, we work with partner organizations that commit to supporting the people we house in their administrative procedures (housing, documentation, health, schooling, etc.). Our association relies on the commitment of its volunteers and members, each of whom can contribute according to their availability and wishes.
