The Ministry of Social Affairs will begin disbursing social assistance to 150,000 eligible families, amid rising unemployment levels and procrastination by the Lebanese authorities in addressing economic and social crises.
Following a meeting with President Michel Aoun on Wednesday, Minister of Social Affairs Hector Hajjar said that the distribution of aid to eligible families within the so-called Aman program “will start next week for 150,000 families,” stressing “full adherence to the criteria set by the ministry and the relevant ministerial committee in selecting the families.”
