Minha Casa, Minha Vida reserves 3% of housing units to ensure dignity and social inclusion
The Minha Casa, Minha Vida program now allocates part of the construction units to the homeless population, with a focus on decent housing and social reintegration. The measure covers 3% of the contracted properties, with priority given to municipalities with the highest concentration of vulnerable people.
Housing construction with a focus on social justice
The new measure establishes that at least 3% of the units in the federal housing program must be reserved for homeless people, with a focus on cities that have more than a thousand individuals in this situation. The construction will be done in partnership with municipalities and states, also involving the support of institutions that work to assist vulnerable groups. According to the Gov Agency, this policy aims to correct a history of exclusion in access to housing.
Criteria for selecting beneficiary families
People registered with CadÚnico and monitored by the municipalities' social assistance services will be considered. Priority will be given to families with children, pregnant women, the elderly, people with disabilities, indigenous people and the trans population. In addition to the construction of housing, the proposal includes ongoing social monitoring to ensure the integration and adaptation of residents to their new home.

Technical support and financing guaranteed
Caixa Econômica Federal will be responsible for document analysis and technical approval of the projects. The National Plan for the Homeless Population provides an initial budget of R$3,7 million to make the initiative viable, including the pilot implementation of the National Citizen Housing Program. The coordination between the Ministries of Cities, Human Rights and Social Development strengthens the proposal for a more inclusive housing policy.
Housing construction as a starting point for citizenship
According to data from 2023, more than 221 thousand homeless people are registered in CadÚnico. The cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Belo Horizonte account for more than 40% of this total. With the new program guidelines, the government intends to guarantee not only shelter, but also a new beginning, with conditions for these people to rebuild their lives with safety and dignity.
