This Decree regulates the Programme for Supporting Working Women and Female Heads of Household established by Law No. 6.388 of 2025 in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul. The programme aims to provide financial assistance to women enrolled in the 'Mais Social' programme who are responsible for single-parent households and face social and economic vulnerability. Its objectives are to promote childcare, facilitate women's access to and retention in employment, and encourage educational participation. The decree establishes a benefit of R$600 per child under four years of age to support childcare arrangements, with an additional 50% supplement available to beneficiaries who are attending regular education or youth and adult education programs. The decree sets out detailed eligibility requirements, application procedures, monitoring mechanisms, and conditions for maintaining benefits. Beneficiaries must meet income thresholds, demonstrate employment or microenterprise activity, maintain childcare and educational commitments, and remain enrolled in the Mais Social program. The regulation also establishes rules for suspension and termination of benefits, including cases involving loss of eligibility, false declarations, non-compliance with program obligations, or changes in family circumstances. Overall, the decree seeks to strengthen social protection for vulnerable women-led households by supporting childcare, employment opportunities, income security, and educational advancement.
