The Regional Secretariat for Labour and Social Solidarity will invest more than 567 thousand Euros on the islands of São Jorge, Pico, Terceira, Flores, São Miguel and Santa Maria, under the programmes to support the renewal of degraded houses and the construction and acquisition of houses.
Under the program to support the renewal of degraded houses, 18 households were supported, representing an investment exceeding 280 thousand Euros. Moreover, more than 287 thousand Euros were also awarded through the programme to support the construction and purchase of houses.
With these new measures, the Government of the Azores aims to provide better living and safety conditions for the households comprised by these financial aids.
