Over the years, much has been said about Emergency Assistance, Daycare Assistance, requests for exemption from tenders and, mainly, about Bolsa Família. All items mentioned are benefits intended for those socioeconomically disadvantaged, with the aim of having a fairer society based on income transfer. A very practical way to access these benefits is to participate in CadÚnico, a government database responsible for identifying and validating families that have access to rights.
