Abstract: This article presents the results of an inventory of social benefits in Germany that are regulated at the federal level. In total, 502 distinct social benefits were identified. This compilation of all cash, in-kind, and service benefits, as well as tax allowances with a social policy purpose, is consolidated in a freely accessible database and published in this report. The aim is to provide a systematic overview of the benefits in the "House of Social Assistance and Support" to guide research, practice, and policy.
