An eviction order in Westland can lead to acute homelessness, especially in districts such as Naaldwijk, Monster, or Kwintsheul. The Municipality of Westland is obliged to provide temporary shelter through the Social Support Act (Wmo) and the local social domain. Apply for asylum accommodation with the COA if you cannot go anywhere else. Tenants with children, health issues, or vulnerable situations receive priority for priority declarations from Westland housing associations such as Vidomes or Mozaïek Wonen. Step 1: report within 24 hours after eviction to the Social Desk Westland in Naaldwijk (Burgemeester van Doornlaan 3) or via westland.regelhulp.nl. They will assess your situation on the spot and assign emergency shelter, such as in local hotels in 's-Gravenzande, crisis emergency shelter in Poeldijk, or temporary units via the WestlandWonen program. Costs are reimbursed until you find a new rental property via Woningnet Westland. Landlords in the greenhouse horticulture region must sometimes contribute to alternative housing. Note: do not remain in the property after the deadline, otherwise you risk fines from the district court in The Hague. Actively search via the Westland Housing Platform or private intermediaries in Honselersdijk. Example: a family from Monster received 3 months of emergency shelter in a crisis location and found a social rental property via priority status with a local housing association. Document everything for possible damage claims against the landlord. Legal assistance via pro bono lawyers from the Juridisch Loket Westland or the law firm in Wateringen helps with applications. This safety net, tailored to the Westland housing shortage, prevents homelessness and provides time for recovery.
