The primary social issue is the educational and employment inclusion of young people with special needs. The speaker strongly emphasizes the necessity of securing adequate educational placements and curricula for this target group so they can thrive in society.

It focuses heavily on social welfare and supporting people with special needs, emphasizing increased funding for specialized care services and services provided to children. It acknowledges the complexity of the transition from the education system to adult specialized care for young people with mental health disorders. Furthermore, it addresses the right to subsistence allowance for young people living apart from their families.

The main social issues involve significantly improving the income of people with disabilities by ensuring they receive both insurance benefits and the work ability allowance (resulting in an income exceeding 1000 euros). The text also addresses the problem of directing NEET youth into the labor market and guaranteeing social protection for young adults up to the age of 24 through subsistence benefits.
