The reform

The subsidy is integrated up to 3,360 euros (280 euros per month) as a rent contribution.

The support is provided for 18 months.

After a month of hiatus, it starts again for another 12.

For the beneficiaries of the Rdc who, at the time of the expiry of the 7 months of subsidy foreseen for this year, have signed a pact for work and are included in active policy measures, the Service of accompaniment to work arrives.
