Only those above 65 years who are poor and vulnerable and none of their household members is receiving pension, regular income, or gainful employment, are entitled to cash transfers (Kshs. 4000) every two months. Those below the age of 65 years who have dementia and are classified as persons with severe disability, are also entitled to similar cash transfer. A person is required to enroll only for one of the schemes even if they qualify for both. Further details on cash transfer schemes are described in part 9 (social protection for people with dementia).
