  A well-off society in an all-round way is a well-off society that benefits all people, and securing the bottom line of the livelihood of all kinds of people with special difficulties is an important content of civil affairs work.

  For people with basic living difficulties, 44.259 million people will be included in the urban and rural subsistence allowances by the end of 2020, and 4.774 million people will be included in the support of the poor in urban and rural areas.

For special groups such as orphans and the disabled, by the end of 2020, the national average security standard for centralized parenting of orphans will reach 1611.3 yuan per person per month, and the average security standard for scattered orphans in society will reach 1184.3 yuan per person per month; living allowances for the disabled and severely disabled persons The nursing subsidy system benefited 12.14 million and 14.751 million respectively.
