As Christmas and the New Year approach, some fifty disadvantaged people, including seniors and people with reduced mobility, will benefit from a monthly allowance of 1,500 Gourdes from the Caisse Assistance Sociale (CAS) through its Regional Office in the department, the beneficiaries will no longer have to go to the Haitian capital to recover this aid from the State.
At a press conference, Pierre Jean Michelet, the Head of the Regional Office of the CAS, said that this grant currently affects three communes in the Southeast out of 10, namely Jacmel, Cayes-Jacmel and Belle-Anse.
Pierre Jean Michelet, while reiterating his commitment and that of the Administration Moïse-Lafontant to continue to work for the improvement of the living conditions of the population, informed that a registration register is open to the Regional Office of the CAS located in the offices of Social Affairs and Labor (MAST) of Jacmel, to integrate about a hundred new beneficiaries under this social assistance program.
