De noodopvang van Samusocial in het World Trade Centre (WTC) in Brussel sloot op 30 september 2026, na acht maanden werking. Door de sluiting verdwijnen 130 noodopvangplaatsen voor alleenstaande mannen, waardoor de opvangcapaciteit van Samusocial voor deze groep daalt van 370 naar 240 plaatsen. 

This data comes from Bruss’help’s eighth count, carried out through a large-scale collaboration across sectors and indicating a worsening trend of homelessness in Brussels. For the first time, data from reception centres for applicants for international protection were collected. Out of 5.135 individuals, 17 were required to leave their centre within 30 days without any housing solution, while 94 remained beyond their expected departure due to the lack of stable housing options.
