Since its establishment in 2001, FOYER DE JEUNES TRAVAILLEURS has been a vital resource and supportive community for young workers in Delle and the surrounding region. Our association is dedicated to providing affordable, secure housing alongside a network of support designed to empower young adults as they embark on their professional and personal journeys.
Our Foundation and Purpose
FOYER DE JEUNES TRAVAILLEURS was founded with a clear mission: to create a safe and welcoming home for young workers who are in transition—whether entering the workforce for the first time, pursuing vocational training, or establishing their independence away from family. Recognizing the challenges faced by this demographic, particularly in securing stable housing, our founders envisioned an environment where young adults could find shelter and guidance simultaneously.
Our purpose is succinct yet profound: to offer a “young workers’ home”—a place where youth can live affordably while receiving support tailored to their unique needs. Over the past two decades, this vision has guided every aspect of our work, from housing management to community programming.
Our Location
Situated at 4 Rue du Paquis, 90100 Delle, our Foyer is conveniently located to provide access to local employment centers, public transportation, educational institutions, and social services. The building itself is designed to balance privacy and community, offering residents private living quarters alongside shared spaces that encourage social interaction, collaboration, and mutual support.
Our Community
The heart of FOYER DE JEUNES TRAVAILLEURS is its community of residents. Primarily young workers aged 16 to 30, our residents come from diverse backgrounds and life situations. Some are just starting their first jobs or apprenticeships, while others are navigating early career challenges. Despite different paths, they share common needs for stability, support, and connection.
Living at the Foyer means more than just having a room to stay—it means becoming part of a supportive community where respect, responsibility, and mutual aid are valued. Our residents engage in daily life together, often building friendships and support networks that extend beyond their stay with us.
Our Services and Support
Beyond providing affordable accommodation, FOYER DE JEUNES TRAVAILLEURS offers a range of support services aimed at fostering autonomy and personal growth. We believe that housing stability is just one part of a successful transition to adulthood. Therefore, we complement our lodging with programs and resources that help young workers manage life’s complexities.

- Administrative Guidance: Helping residents navigate paperwork related to housing, employment, healthcare, and other essential services.

At FOYER DE JEUNES TRAVAILLEURS, our work is driven by core values that shape every interaction and decision:
- Solidarity: We believe in standing together and supporting each other, recognizing that community strength comes from mutual care.
