Abstract
The CCTC and vouchers programs are social welfare programs provided by the Government of Mongolia’s Ministry of Social Welfare and Labor to improve the quality of care delivered to persons with disabilities. The CCTC program provides full-time caretakers for people who are in need of
permanent care, including children and adults with disabilities (those who have lost 50% of their labor capacity), and older people (ages 55 and above for women, and 60 for men). The nominated caretaker paid under the program is usually a close relative of the person with disability. In 2012,
about 20,000 recipients nationwide availed of the CCTC program.
