Specialist intervention by the district 'Social Housing Assistance Agencies' according to § 22 SGB II and § 36 SGB XII. The core task is to secure accommodation by assuming rent debts (as a loan or grant) and negotiating with landlords to withdraw eviction lawsuits in order to prevent loss of housing and consequential enforcement costs.
