Voucher programs are initiatives that provide financial assistance to individuals or families, allowing them to use the funds for specific purposes, such as education or housing. These programs aim to give recipients more choices and flexibility in selecting services or institutions that best meet their needs. In education, for example, school vouchers enable parents to use public funding to enroll their children in private schools. Similarly, housing vouchers help low-income families afford rent in the private market, promoting access to better living conditions and neighborhoods.
