Social advice centres

Social advice centres provide counselling services for different types of problems and issues, for example, problems with the authorities, questions on welfare benefits (Unemployment Benefit II, housing benefit), clarifying and enforcing your rights and claims, or if you are in a difficult financial situation.

The counselling sessions are tailored to meet your needs as well as your social environment/system. Solutions for your questions and problems will be found by working together. Social advice is (actually) not legal advice, although the issues often overlap. Most of the counselling is done by social workers. Regardless of your ideology and religion, counselling is free of charge, strictly confidential and if preferred, anonymous.
