On 9 November, Bulgaria’s Ministry of Labour and Social Policy announced that it was preparing a measure called For Every Child. Minister Natalia Efremova outlined the plan at the opening of an international autism conference at Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski. The aim is for families to receive coordinated support from professionals who can guide them to appropriate services.
According to the ministry, the new measure will bring together social and health services and help children develop practical, social and emotional skills. Efremova also highlighted continued education and future employment opportunities. The ministry described the measure as a follow-up to Future for Children, which already supports early childhood development.
The ministry says more than 19,000 children with disabilities and their families receive free specialist support through over 430 state-funded social services. Those figures cover existing services. The ministry has yet to announce the details of the new measure.
