Social assistance to families and children

The state support system for families and children comprises two main parts: benefits paid irrespective of the family assets and income and the assistance paid to low-income families according to their income level.
 

Efforts to improve the social assistance system for families and children embody the following important areas: development of socioeconomic environment by reducing unemployment; promotion of occupational activity; improvement of the family and children support system; increase in the family responsibilities for the family well-being; creation of conditions favourable for families in solving housing problems; co-ordination of family allowances with other forms of assistance and other measures promoting more active integration into the labour market through education.
