This app provides an introduction to and application process for the "Welfare Membership (Customized Benefit Information)" program, which will be implemented starting in September 2021.

- What is Customized Benefit Information (Welfare Membership)?
Customized Benefit Information (Welfare Membership) is a system that provides personalized guidance on eligible welfare services based on the age, household composition, and financial circumstances of individuals or households seeking welfare benefits.
To eliminate blind spots in welfare services where individuals are unaware of the services they are eligible for and are unable to apply, we proactively identify "the benefits I need and the benefits I am eligible for" based on their life cycle!
- What welfare services can I receive guidance on through the Welfare Membership? Key programs available for guidance include: △Childcare and childcare support (childcare allowances, childcare fees, and child care); △Living support (basic living security programs, disability pensions, and basic pensions); △Education support (elementary and middle school tuition support, and education support for single parents); △Medical support (reduction of out-of-pocket expenses for low-income households, medical expenses for cancer patients); △Pregnancy and childbirth (mother and newborn health care support, treatment cost support for infertile couples); △Reduction services (energy vouchers, low-income rate discounts, etc.).
