Consejería de Familia, Juventud y Asuntos Sociales

The Consejería de Familia, Juventud y Asuntos Sociales is a department within the government of the Community of Madrid responsible for family affairs, youth services, and social welfare programs. Recent news highlights the department's allocation of funds to address critical social needs. Specifically, the department is allocating two million euros to support families with children requiring palliative care. This comes after a significant disparity in 2023, where only 16% of applicant families received such aid. Furthermore, the department has approved a 3.5 million euro investment for the management of two rehabilitation centers for individuals with severe and enduring mental health conditions over the next three years. These investments underscore the Consejería's role in providing essential support and resources to vulnerable populations within the Madrid community, addressing both physical and mental health challenges faced by families and individuals.
