The new social benefits are in line with His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid’s vision for empowering People of Determination in Dubai, by enabling them to turn challenges into opportunities, achieve success in various fields, and provide them an environment that gives them stability and enhances their contribution to the development of Dubai and the UAE.

SOCIAL BENEFITS

The new decision by Sheikh Hamdan will be beneficial for People of Determination below the age of 60, who have physical or mental impairments that require them to be supported by others.

The benefits include fees for kindergarten establishments, schools, university programs, and training and rehabilitation centers within specialized institutions, as well as the costs of providing shadow teachers, caregivers, personal assistants and sign language interpreters.

The support package also covers assistive devices and technologies, rehabilitation of vehicles and various means of transportation and the costs of equipping the workplace to accommodate people with various types of disabilities.
