What de raster vzw does

De Raster vzw is a Belgian non-profit association (vereniging zonder winstoogmerk, vzw) that provides supported housing and psychosocial rehabilitation services for adults and young adults with psychiatric or psychosocial vulnerabilities. Its core delivery is structured around two pillars: Woonvormen (Living Arrangements), which spans sheltered housing (Beschut wonen), transitional housing (Transit wonen), psychiatric nursing-home care (PVT Kraaienberg), passage houses (Doorgangshuizen), the intensive FoRast residence, mobile teams and the 4YOU(th) youth homelessness program; and C.A.P.R. (Centrum voor Activering, Arbeidszorg en Psychosociale Revalidatie), which delivers activation, work-guidance (AMA-Arbeidsmatige Activiteiten, Arbeidscoaching, Activeringstrajecten) and psychosocial-rehabilitation modules including CPR Perron 70. The platform is a services-and-modules architecture rather than a technology platform: care delivery is built on psychosocial rehabilitation methodologies, structured intake (info sessions plus psychiatric/psychologist interviews), and multi-stakeholder referral coordination across the Flemish GGZ ecosystem.

The organization operates three physical sites — Molenstraat 7 in Beigem (headquarters), Stationstraat 70 in Asse, and the Grimbergsesteenweg 40 location inside Psychiatric Hospital Sint-Alexius in Grimbergen — and is structurally embedded in the Brothers of Charity (Broeders van Liefde) network and the GGZ SaVHA mental-health network. The business model is funded primarily through the Belgian healthcare-insurance system (RIZIV conventions) with a small daily co-payment (remgeld) billed monthly; participants with increased-reimbursement status (verhoogde tegemoetkoming) receive services free of charge. Go-to-market is referral-led rather than commercial: participants are routed in via healthcare providers, social workers, OCMW, VDAB, GTB, IPS, the 1G1P Meldpunt system and the A Way Home Halle-Vilvoorde coalition, with awareness raised through community events such as Open Geestdagen, the Talentenshow Perron 70 and theater performances. The sub-brands C.A.P.R., Perron 70 and 4YOU(th), together with the umbrella 'Netwerkwonenplus' identity, segment the offering by intensity (residential vs. day-activity vs. mobile) and by target population (adults with psychiatric vulnerabilities vs. young adults facing homelessness).
