Family support and welfare initiatives in Bari

Overview

The municipality of Bari has implemented several social welfare initiatives funded by the Puglia Region to support various family structures and caregiving needs.

In late September 2026, Mamme Contatto APS launched a pilot project titled ‘Inclusive Parenting – Integrated Pilot Protocol for Perinatal Support for the Protection of Minor Well-being’. This program focuses on protecting children's rights through professional training in inclusive language, personalized support for families with infants, and community meetings for parents.

Concurrently, the Municipality of Bari released a provisional ranking for a financial assistance program aimed at family caregivers. This initiative provides a one-time 500-euro contribution to individuals assisting non-self-sufficient relatives who are recognized as disabled and entitled to an accompaniment allowance. The program includes a budget of approximately 163,185 euros and allows for a formal appeals process regarding the selection of beneficiaries.
