Kebijakan Kesejahteraan Indonesia Menahan Bantuan untuk Penyandang Disabilitas
Detail teknis dalam kebijakan bantuan sosial di Indonesia telah menyebabkan banyak penyandang disabilitas tidak mendapatkan bantuan keuangan dari pemerintah. Di Jakarta, distribusi bantuan sosial publik diputuskan melalui proses yang dikenal sebagai Sistem Terpadu Manajemen Kesejahteraan Sosial (DTKS), yang menggunakan kriteria seperti kepemilikan properti untuk menentukan apakah seseorang akan menerima bantuan pemerintah atau tidak. Menurut Yeni Rosa Damayanti, ketua Perhimpunan Jiwa Sehat Indonesia, DTKS biasanya didasarkan pada keadaan keluarga, bukan individu. Hal ini membuat banyak penyandang disabilitas yang tinggal bersama keluarga mereka tidak memenuhi syarat untuk mendapatkan bantuan tunai dari program-program seperti Kartu Penyandang Disabilitas Jakarta (KPDJ), bahkan jika mereka tidak memiliki sumber pendapatan individu. “Bambang,” seorang pria Indonesia penyandang disabilitas psikososial, menjelaskan bagaimana paradoks ini telah membuatnya tidak bisa menerima KPDJ, membuatnya sepenuhnya bergantung pada keluarganya untuk bertahan hidup. *Video termasuk deskripsi audio. *Baca bersama dengan mengklik tombol cc pada pemutar YouTube Anda.
