The Auxílio Brasil benefit is an initiative of the Federal Government to help low-income Brazilian families. In addition, the objective of Auxílio Brasil is to further connect health care, education and employment. Therefore, Auxílio Brasil offers a basket of benefits designed to guarantee the future emancipation of that family.

In today's article, we'll show you all the details of the new benefit coordinated by the Ministry of Citizenship. Continue reading and check it out!

First, the Auxílio Brasil benefit is an income transfer program. In this sense, this program encompasses families in situations of poverty and extreme poverty in the country. That is, family groups that are in social vulnerability.

In addition, the benefit came to officially replace the former Bolsa Família. In this way, it promises to work in a similar way to the previous program. In fact, the initial value of the Brazil Aid installment is R$ 600.

In summary, the benefits of Auxílio Brasil will be seen directly in the population. This is because the program promises to move society and generate emancipation of the vulnerable population. That is, one of the main objectives is to guarantee the income of families so that they can overcome this situation. 

In addition, Auxílio Brasil focuses on improving the development of children and adolescents. In this sense, giving full support in the issue of health and education of this group. Furthermore, Auxílio Brasil promises to be an integrated program, and not just income transfer. Thus, connecting pillars such as income, employment, education and health. 

Furthermore, as we mentioned, Auxílio Brasil offers different benefits in order to connect these pillars. See some:

In summary, this benefit is R$130 per family member who is a child aged between 0 and 36 incomplete months.

This benefit is intended for family groups that have pregnant women or people aged between 3 and 21 years old. Therefore, this family is entitled to the amount of R$65 per member.

Overall, the government designed this benefit to help families in extreme poverty. Thus, these families receive a minimum amount calculated per member.

As already mentioned, Auxílio Brasil also seeks to influence the education of children and adolescents. Therefore, the child citizen aid is granted to guarantee the child's access to day care centers. In this sense, the values are R$200 for children in part-time and R$300 in full-time.

The government created this benefit for those who already received money from the Bolsa Família Program and ended up having a reduction in the total financial amount received.

In general, to participate in the program it is necessary to be in a situation of poverty or extreme poverty. In addition, the family must be composed of pregnant women, or breastfeeding mothers, or children and adolescents between 0 and 21 years old. 

After all, what does it mean to be in poverty? Basically, family groups in situations of extreme poverty receive R$105.00 or less per capita monthly family income. Families in poverty, on the other hand, have a monthly income between R$105.01 and R$210.00.

Thus, as with most government benefits, to participate it is necessary to enroll in CadÚnico. The Single Registry for Social Programs of the Federal Government gathers data from all these families. Therefore, it is very important that you keep the data updated for at least the last two years.

By the way, to understand if you can register, just look for the person in charge at the city hall of your city. However, it is worth mentioning that registration does not mean that you will receive the benefit. This is because the government conducts an analysis to select families.

Finally, if you already have your CadÚnico registration and have already made sure that it is up to date, just wait to find out if you will be selected. Therefore, the government makes the automatic selection to distribute the benefit among the families. That is, if you were selected, the Box will send you a warning. Alternatively, it is possible to consult through the Caixa application and by calling 111.
