The Town of Hafnarfjörður highlights the opportunity for people with disabilities who require specialized support due to their disability to apply for grants under Article 25 of Act No. 38/2018 on Services for People with Disabilities with Long-Term Support Needs.
The grant is intended for social habilitation and rehabilitation aimed at helping people with disabilities create employment opportunities. Eligibility requirements include having a registered residence in Hafnarfjörður, being at least 18 years old, and having a permanent disability assessment. The application period is three weeks, and applications must be processed within three weeks after the deadline.

Grants may also be awarded for the purchase of tools and equipment for home work or independent activities following rehabilitation, provided the activity counts as social training or rehabilitation aimed at helping people with disabilities create employment opportunities.
