The street work services run by the City of Luxembourg are based on a project from 2001 called Projekt Streetwork – Jugendliche im städtischen Raum (Project Streetwork – Young people in the city). The field project was funded by the Ministry of Family Affairs (Ministère de la Famille) and the City of Luxembourg, and carried out by Caritas Jeunes et Familles, Inter-Actions and Cesije.

Over the past 20 years, the scope of the street work services run by the City of Luxembourg has expanded significantly and they are now financed and managed exclusively by the City of Luxembourg. A total of 18.5 permanent full-time jobs have been created at the service providers Caritas Jeunes et Familles, Caritas Accueil et Solidarité (CAS), the Luxembourg Red Cross and Inter-Actions for this purpose.
