In Belgium, the Housing First model has been tested since September 2013 as part of the Housing First Belgium (HFB) experiment3. For 24 months, an evaluation team has compared the evolution of tenants supported by HFB teams to homeless people relying on a traditional support system. In a logical ‘evidence based policy’, the aim is to highlight the conditions of implementation (in terms of effectiveness and efficiency) of the Housing First practices in Belgium.
