Explanation:
Não sei se 'voucher' serve como tradução para 'precatório' - só encontrei 'precatory', como adjetivo... mas como 'voucher' também quer dizer 'título', talvez sirva.

Enquanto isso, o Estado brasileiro não paga sequer o que deve a seus cidadãos. `*** Há titulares de precatórios alimentares morrendo*** todo dia, sem ver sequer um centavo do que lhes é devido. Morrem sem esperança nem mesmo de que o cônjuge ou o filho receba. A União deve ao funcionalismo público, desde 1993, um aumento de 28,86 %, que vem sendo pago em conta-gotas para aqueles mais necessitados que se viram obrigados a aceitar um acordo leonino. As decisões transitaram em julgado, mas precatório algum foi pago.

12 - Families formerly entitled to the Income Allowance are included in the Food Allowance scheme (BAL)
The number of families entitled to the Food Allowance has been increased since April as a result of the transfer of R$36 million by MESA to the Health Ministry. To begin with, 206 thousand families formerly entitled to the Income Allowance will begin to receive the Food Allowance.

The remaining families will gradually be included in the scheme as the registers are updated. By the end of the year, 3.5 million beneficiaries will have been included. There are currently 1.7 million beneficiaries.

13 - Food banks
A manual for setting up and administering the public food banks instituted by MESA’s Secretariat for Food Security Programmes is available on the Zero Hunger Scheme’s website at . The manual, entitled ‘Como Implantar e Gerir Bancos de Alimentos’ (‘How to set up and administer food banks‘), was based on suggestions made by representatives of existing food banks.

It provides basic information ranging from the purpose of food banks, guidance on procedures, identifying and contacting donors to food distribution. The manual shows how food banks are spreading throughout Brazil and describes some of the most successful initiatives.
