In the Kirov region, more than 3,700 women receive the "mother's salary."

      In the Kirov Oblast, 3,750 women receive a monthly social benefit known as the "mom's salary." Out of this number, 340 women receive an increased amount of 45,794 rubles. This support is provided to women who became mothers before the age of 25.

      The program began in January 2024, when an amount of 38,203 rubles was established for women having their first child. Starting in January 2025, the amount for young mothers was indexed. If the woman's income is below the established level, she receives an additional payment to reach the full benefit amount. The assistance amount is calculated based on all sources of income — from the employer, the Social Fund, and other sources.

      To qualify for the benefit, a woman must reside in the region for at least six months prior to childbirth, and the child must be registered in Kirov Oblast and under medical supervision at a state clinic. Payments begin from the month of the child's birth.
