SHORT-term OPPORTUNITY; two weeks to catch your breath.
From April 1 to August 1, 2026, De Regenboog Groep runs Short-term Shelter (KDO). KDO is a night shelter where homeless Amsterdam residents can sleep for a maximum of 2 weeks. Those two weeks are meant so you can get some rest, you can look for another place or care. Or so you can look for work or housing of your own.
For whom
.There are a few conditions you must meet. You are:
- Roofless
- Minimum of 1 year registered in (region) Amsterdam;
- Having a clear goal (e.g., rest, recovery, applying for benefits);
These conditions do not apply to adolescents and young adults (18-23 years) and undocumented persons (people without residence papers).
Locations
.There are three addresses where we have sleeping places for short-term shelter:
- T6, Transformatorweg 6
- For people from the LHBTIQ+ community, there is the Princehof, Oudezijds Voorburgwal 165
- Women can go to AMOC-zuid, Stadhouderskade 159
