Since October 1, 2008, families with minor children in an irregular or inadmissible are housed in family units.
These are individual accommodations within an open community where they are accompanied by guides before and until their return. A tailor-made individual return plan is established for each family.
There are 27 family units: 3 houses and 3 studios in Zulte; 5 apartments in Tubize; 7 houses in St-Gilles-Waas; 3 houses in Tielt; 6 houses in Beauvechain.
