The Social Security Corporation (SSC) will provide in-kind support to about
100,000 (other reports indicate 35,000-50,000) vulnerable families that
include an individual over the age of 70 and casual workers. Food parcels
have a monetary value of JD40-50. The program may be extended to persons
with chronic illnesses. SSC is also studying to expanding the list to include
families whose breadwinners have lost their work, especially those working
in the informal sector, in case the government decided to extend the
suspension.
