In the Kirov region, payments to foster parents and guardians will be increased.

      At the meeting of the Legislative Assembly committee, a bill was reviewed that introduces changes to the law "On Social Support for Orphaned Children." It states that starting from July 1, 2026, four types of payments will increase by 10%.

      The first type is payments for orphans and children left without parental care who are under guardianship or in foster families. The payment amount will be 9,636 rubles if the child is under seven years old, and 9,972 rubles if older.

      The second type is payments for children to families with three or more children who are under guardianship or adopted. Their amount will be 1,771 rubles.

      The third type is payments to foster parents. They will increase to 5,930 rubles if there is one child, to 7,902 rubles if there are two, and to 9,856 rubles if there are three. For each subsequent child, 2,957 rubles will be paid, and for each disabled child, 1,971 rubles.

      Finally, the fourth type is travel payments. They will rise to 436 rubles.

      Committee members supported the initiative. The final decision will be made at the plenary session of the Legislative Assembly.
