Overview

  • Hamburg will open 30 transitional beds from mid‑September at Repsoldstraße 27 near the St. Georg drug scene, complementing 35 sleeping places at the neighboring Nox project.
  • The site concentrates low-threshold support with day-structuring offers and individual counseling to prepare participants for rehabilitation, jobcenter services, or housing.
  • Residents are expected to maintain their spaces and keep appointments as part of rebuilding daily structure and personal responsibility.
  • A psychiatric outpatient clinic for addicted patients is slated to open at the site in winter, run by Asklepios and described as the first of its kind nationwide under the Hamburg Landespsychiatrieplan.
  • Outreach will be provided with UKE’s SAFE project as the city tests a bundled, location-based model in a district long strained by an expanding open drug scene.
