Infor Drogues & Addictions asbl

What Infor Drogues & Addictions asbl does

Infor Drogues & Addictions asbl is a Belgian non-profit association (association sans but lucratif) founded in 1971 and headquartered at Rue du Marteau 19, 1000 Brussels. It provides information, support, and advice to individuals, families, and professionals affected by drug use and behavioral addictions, operating across the Brussels-Capital Region and Wallonia. Its core service portfolio consists of an extended-hours anonymous telephone helpline (02 227 52 52), individual/couple/family consultations, specialized chemsex and festive-use consultations delivered in partnership with Modus Vivendi, and a prevention service offering training and institutional accompaniment to educational, social, and healthcare-sector professionals. It also produces free publications, harm-reduction brochures, and video content through Infor Drogues & Addictions TV, and in March 2026 launched ANSA, a collaborative digital directory for the addiction sector in Brussels.

The organization is officially accredited by the Commission Communautaire Française de la Région de Bruxelles Capitale and the Agence wallonne pour une vie de qualité (AVIQu), which constitute its primary funding base as a government-subsidized ASBL. All direct services to individuals and families are provided free of charge; publications are available as free downloads and in paper form on request. Revenue mechanics are therefore grant-driven rather than transactional, with no disclosed pricing model or commercial revenue streams.

The underlying technology footprint is modest: a CMS-based website, social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube), and the newly launched ANSA directory. The organization holds no patents, proprietary software platforms, or AI/ML assets. Strategic positioning emphasizes harm reduction over abstinence-only approaches, evidence-based drug policy advocacy, and collaboration through the FéDA federation and partnerships with peer organizations including Modus Vivendi and Ex-Aequo.
