BBC highlights winning trajectory of a Piauiense who received Bolsa Família

“In our family, the cycle of structural poverty has been broken. But it wasn’t easy. When I stop to think about my story, I know how long it took for this to happen. It’s not trivial at all,” Dener Silva Miranda, 31, said in the BBC report, published on Monday, September 11.

Of that first generation, only one in five children of beneficiaries of the program continued to receive the Bolsa Família 14 years later, according to a survey by the Institute for Mobility and Social Development published in April of this year.
