Our Minister of Family and Social Services, Derya Yanık, announced that they started to deposit a total of 1 billion 885 million TL Home Care Allowance into accounts this month in order to provide economic support to citizens with severe disabilities and their families in need of care.

Minister Derya Yanık stated that they support persons with disabilities living with their families with service models such as day care service and home care allowance. Yanık said that with the Home Care Allowance, which was started in 2006 with the idea of supporting persons with disabilities primarily with their families, relatives of persons with severe disabilities in need of care, who cannot work because they take care of them, are supported.

Reminding that 3.336 TL is paid monthly per beneficiary within the scope of Home Care Allowance, Minister Yanık said: “We started to deposit a total of 1 billion 885 million TL Home Care Allowance into accounts this month in order to provide economic support to persons with severe disabilities and their families in need of care. This month, 565,000 of our citizens benefit from Home Care Allowance. I would also like to emphasize that our Vision of the Century of Türkiye in the field of disability, acting with the vision of a society that leaves no one behind, is to enable persons with disabilities to participate actively and independently in all areas of social life in their own social environment without discrimination.”
