The Accanto funding program has been launched, a support measure for separated, divorced, and widowed parents in Lombardy, with a total financial allocation of 1,500,000 euros. The program offers contributions that can reach a maximum of 2,500 euros for families with an ISEE of up to 20,000 euros, and 1,500 euros for those with an ISEE of up to 30,000 euros. This initiative was announced by the regional assessor for Family, Social Solidarity, Disability, and Equal Opportunities, Elena Lucchini, and aims to provide tangible assistance to families facing critical situations such as separations or bereavements.
The program includes three lines of intervention: the ‘Care and Growth’ line for children’s healthcare expenses, the ‘One Step Ahead’ line dedicated to educational support, and the ‘Home and Future’ line aimed at rent and mortgage assistance. Interested parents can contact the nearest Family Center for help in creating a personalized project that includes the necessary support proposals for their children’s development. Through this initiative, the goal is to ensure effective support during delicate phases of family life, thereby providing significant assistance to families in Lombardy facing difficulties.
