Children who would become in need of protection if they did not receive support due to economic deprivation, and who can be cared for by their families or relatives by benefiting from social and economic support without a care measure decision being issued.

Young people who have reached the age limit after a care measure decision was issued and have left social service institutions or foster families, who are continuing their job and vocational training courses or education, or who would fall into a state of need if they did not receive support because they could not find a job.

Those who cannot meet the basic needs of themselves and their family members they are responsible for due to an extraordinary disaster, natural disaster, illness, or accident, as well as children of individuals who have encountered life-threatening health problems or have passed away.

Applications are evaluated within the framework of the Regulation on Social and Economic Support Services, and requests found appropriate are supported.
