Le Refuge Bruxelles is a Brussels-based shelter providing emergency accommodation and support for LGBTQI+ people aged 18 to 25 who are in a situation of exclusion on account of their sexual orientation and/or gender identity.

Emergency accommodation at Le Refuge lasts for a maximum of three months, during which time we offer multidimensional support including administrative, legal and social support; access to physical and mental health care; organisation of socio-cultural activities; help in finding accommodation; and help in finding a job, training or further education.

Whether you are in a situation of emergency, need help or have a question, we are at your disposal.

The needs of the young people we accommodate and support are manifold. Help us to keep our shelter alive.

Le Refuge Bruxelles gathers motivated volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. What do they have in common? The desire to fight against discrimination and exclusion of young LGBTQI+ people.

On the agenda: Organisation of socio-cultural activities, management of Le Refuge’s internal shop, organisation of public events, participation in awareness-raising activities, and much more.
