Legal and regulatory bodies in Brazil have initiated several interventions to protect social services and human rights. In Alagoas and Pará, federal and state courts ordered the freezing of government funds to prevent the collapse of essential services. These measures were taken to secure hospital operations, staff salaries, and medical supplies in Alagoas, as well as to guarantee care and food for children with disabilities in Pará.

Concurrently, the Federal Public Ministry (MPF) has taken action in Paraíba and Alagoas. In Paraíba, the MPF filed a lawsuit to address security failures and criminal interference within the Renascer traditional community, requesting an emergency security plan. In Alagoas, the MPF monitored public policies for the homeless population to identify barriers to service access.
