welfare policies

Welfare policies are government programs designed to assist individuals and families in need, ensuring basic necessities like food, housing, healthcare, and financial stability. They aim to reduce poverty, support vulnerable populations, and promote social well-being. These policies may include safety nets such as unemployment benefits, food assistance, housing subsidies, and healthcare coverage. They are funded by taxpayers and are intended to provide temporary or ongoing support to help people improve their economic situation and achieve greater self-sufficiency.
