Infor Jeunes Schaerbeek

What Infor Jeunes Schaerbeek does

Infor Jeunes Schaerbeek is a Belgian non-profit association (ASBL) founded in 1980 that operates a free, walk-in youth information center serving young people aged 12-26 across the Brussels-Capital Region. The organization delivers in-person information, individualized counseling, and accompaniment across topics including studies, employment, housing (student kots), rights, health, international mobility, and socio-juridical support for foreigners (including unaccompanied MENA minors). Its core service portfolio comprises four lines: a general Information and Welcome service (Accueil), a Job/Employment service, a Housing/Kot service, and a specialized Socio-Legal Permanent Office for Foreigners' Rights, supplemented by digital literacy workshops, cyberbullying/discrimination awareness sessions, and a free-access computer space.

The organization is not a technology product company; its platform is service delivery supported by a WordPress website (jeminforme.be) built with the Divi page builder, cookie consent managed via Complianz, and standard web integrations (Google Analytics, reCAPTCHA, Google Maps, YouTube). No AI/ML, proprietary software, mobile app, or data flywheel is described. Distribution is omnichannel: six physical locations across Schaerbeek (HQ), Jette, Anderlecht, Ixelles, and Saint-Josse, plus telephone, email, social media (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok), and event-based outreach. The business model is non-commercial: all services are free to end-users, and the organization is funded by public subsidies from three government bodies — Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles (as a recognized Centre d'Information des Jeunes), the Commission communautaire française (as a Social Cohesion operator), and the Région de Bruxelles-Capitale via Actiris. It is also a member of the CIDJ network and operates as a 6-employee association with no private equity, venture, or parent-company ownership.
