Fondation Maison de la Porte Ouverte

What Fondation Maison de la Porte Ouverte does

Fondation Maison de la Porte Ouverte (FMPO) is a Luxembourg-based nonprofit foundation established in 1971 and recognized by the state as an établissement d'utilité publique since 1993. It delivers integrated social, psychological, legal, and educational services to vulnerable populations across two operating departments: 'Jeunes' (youth) and 'Adultes' (adults). The youth department provides emergency psychosocial crisis reception (AUSC), residential and orthopedagogical care for unaccompanied minors and adolescents, a socio-therapeutic center (CST-IamI), supported housing for young adults, family assistance (AEMO), and consultation centers (Mandala, Ressources). The adult department operates shelters and consultation services for young mothers, women in distress (including victims of domestic violence), parents, and victims of human trafficking (InfoTraite/COTEH), plus supported housing for women and families.

FMPO's service portfolio comprises 11 residential reception centers (jour et nuit), 1 day center, 3 consultation centers, 1 family assistance service, 1 trafficking victim assistance service, and 2 open-housing services across Luxembourg. Its underlying platform is a human-delivered psycho-pedagogical care model supported by state-licensed continuing professional training programs and public-facing tools including the relation2test online questionnaire (co-developed with the Ministry of Equality) and the Helpline Violence Domestique (2060 1060), the latter operated as part of a multi-NGO consortium. FMPO employs approximately 130 salaried staff (2021) and has pioneered several first-of-kind services in Luxembourg, including the first shelters for women in distress (1976) and young mothers (1987), the first adolescent day center (1995), the first day-and-night center for young parents (2013), and the first shelter for trafficking victims (2019).

The foundation's revenue model is dual-track: recurring state subsidies supporting its public utility mandate, supplemented by tax-deductible charitable donations from corporate donors (e.g., Baloise, LIONS Club, Paul Wurth, EY Luxembourg), private foundations (André Losch Fondation, Œuvre Nationale de Secours Grande-Duchesse Charlotte, Fondation EME), service clubs (Zonta Club), municipalities, and individuals. All services are provided free of charge to beneficiaries. Customer segments are diversified across six primary personas (minors in distress, unaccompanied refugee minors, young mothers/parents, women in distress and domestic violence victims, trafficking victims, and transitioning young adults), and beneficiary access is via government and social-service referrals, direct contact, and the national domestic violence helpline.
