Official: Government to support people living with disabilities with HUF 300 million

Peter Csizi told a press conference that under a scheme dubbed Employment 2024, rehabilitation service providers helping people with disabilities find employment on the primary labour market can apply for funding over one year. Prospective employers and employees will both need education to enable as many people find work as possible, he said.

A tender for parents aims to provide financial support to civilian and church organisations that support parents raising children with severe disabilities, he said. At a similar tender last year, some 1,500 parents received support, he said.

The third tender which has been regularly announced for over fifteen years supports organisations that train service dogs, he said. These include visual assistance dogs, as well as mobility supporter dogs and therapy dogs, he added.
