First, what is the function of social assistance fund?

First, residents' basic rights to subsistence and development can be guaranteed. The right to subsistence and development are the basic rights of citizens in modern society. In modern society, especially in the period of economic and social transformation, the overall cause of poverty is that social factors are greater than personal factors, so social assistance is the unshirkable responsibility of the state and society. The establishment of social assistance fund will help to prevent the poor from getting deeper and deeper and guarantee their basic needs for survival and development.

Third, it is conducive to achieving social stability. The purpose of the minimum living security system arrangement is to seek a proper balance between efficiency and fairness. When a country's economy develops to a certain extent, it will inevitably alleviate social contradictions and maintain social stability through the secondary and tertiary distribution of social wealth. The value concept of modern social assistance is based on solving the relationship between the rights and obligations of social assistance, and its core is "the right of people in need to ask for and receive social assistance". Establishing social assistance funds to solve the survival risks faced by people in need will help maintain stability and unity and realize the stable and harmonious development of society.
