What we see again in Ben's situation is that people with housing and debt problems are pushed aside by government agencies and social housing providers. Are you not into able to participate in society, do you not fit in the right box or have you not gone through the right legal steps? Then you end up on the street without help. Ben is under administration and we cannot expect anyone to initiate proper legal proceedings within 2 weeks of his sister's death. Meanwhile, the reminders, debts and legal costs are piling up. Soon he will be homeless, but Hof Wonen has maintained the 'living space distribution system'. It's about time politics and housing associations are coming to understand that making someone homeless to free up space in the 'housing distribution system' is literally carrying water to the sea and the damage to individuals and society is much greater when these people are made homeless. On the one hand, lives of people like Ben are destroyed, on the other hand, there are high social costs associated with homelessness and assistance. We also call on the municipality of The Hague and alderman Balster to take a duty of care for the residents of this city and to guarantee rehousing.
