"Projekt UDENFOR" is a non-government foundation which combines active social street work with training and research in relation to homelessness and social marginalization. The organization was established in 1996 by MD Preben Brandt. It was inspired by the fact at that time that the official social security system not always was able to reach every marginalized citizen, who, for one reason or another, has dropped out of the system.

The word UDENFOR means in English OUTSIDE and refers to the fact that this foundation literally works outside, works outside the official public system, and that they deal with a marginalized group of people, who are "outsiders" to society in general. "projekt UDENFOR" is funded by government grants and private funds as well as income generated from consultant-activities, lectures and training.

The Midlands Simon Community began in 2004 and was established to support individuals, couples and families who are experiencing or who are at risk of homelessness throughout the Midlands Counties of Laois, Longford, Offaly and Westmeath. It delivers services to more than 300 people every year, across a predominately rural area, and seeks to support people to remain in their own homes and avoid eviction or to exit from emergency shelters as quickly as possible and source their own homes. To this end the Midlands Simon Community has adopted a “Housing First” model of service delivery and in 2015 the front line staff became the first service in Europe to be trained directly in the methodologies associated with “Housing First” by Dr Sam Tsemberis.
