Paying a total of TL 4.2 billion tomorrow, the Minister of Family and Social Services, Mahinur Özdemir Göktaş, announced that the Ministry would bring forward the payments of Home Care Allowance deposited every month to provide financial support to citizens with full dependency and their families caring for them in their homes for Eid al-Adha.

Minister Göktaş reminded that Home Care Allowance, one of the most important family-oriented care service models offered by the Ministry, was launched in 2006 with the idea that persons with disabilities would be supported primarily by their families. Göktaş said, "The Ministry prioritizes the care of persons with disabilities at their homes in a way preserving the family integrity. The Ministry supports the protection and strengthening of the family unity of persons with disabilities by supporting them to live with their family or relatives without leaving their environment with Home Care Allowance."

Stating that the Home Care Allowance protected the family integrity by supporting citizens taking care of their relatives with full dependency, Göktaş said: "The Ministry develops policies with a rights-based perspective for persons with disabilities to fully access their fundamental rights such as education, healthcare, security and employment. The Ministry is trying to reach every member of the society with the holistic and fair social service models developed."

Stating that 7.608 TL was paid per month per right-holder within the scope of Home Care Allowance, Minister Göktaş noted the following:

“Due to Eid al-Adha, the Ministry is paying Home Care Allowance payments for citizens with full dependency and their families being cared for in their homes by bringing them forward and depositing the allowances to the bank accounts tomorrow. This month, the Ministry pays a total of 4.2 billion TL Home Care Allowance payments for 560.000 citizens benefiting from Home Care Allowance. Within the framework of the vision of the Century of Türkiye, the Ministry will continue making efforts to ensure that rights-based social assistance in disability is sustainable with a transparent approach. I wish the payments to be beneficial to all persons with disabilities and their families."
