Jeongeup-si Builds Strong Welfare Network through Construction of Integrated Regional Self-Sufficiency Center

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jae-gil] Jeongeup City in Jeonbuk has embarked on the construction of an Integrated Regional Self-Support Center to ensure the stable promotion of self-support work projects within the region.

Jeongeup City announced on the 19th that it held a "Jeongeup Integrated Regional Self-Support Center Construction Service Mid-term Report Meeting" on the 17th at the city hall's medium conference room.

The meeting was attended by Mayor Yoo Jin-seop, related officials, and heads of related institutions such as the Regional Self-Support Center and the Multicultural Center.

At the report meeting, in-depth discussions were held to establish the basic direction for the service promotion, including the basic plan and feasibility study for the construction of the Integrated Regional Self-Support Center.

Based on the results of this feasibility study service, the city plans to prepare administrative procedures such as investment review and approval for the acquisition of public property to accelerate the construction of the Jeongeup Integrated Regional Self-Support Center.

The construction of the Jeongeup Integrated Regional Self-Support Center aims to foster the will for self-reliance and independence, develop capabilities to become self-sufficient through jobs after leaving social welfare support, and break free from the vicious cycle of poverty. From next year until 2023, a total of 5 floors with a total floor area of 1,650㎡ will be built with an investment of 5 billion KRW including national funds.

Additionally, to achieve welfare synergy effects, the city plans to jointly build an Integrated Family Center, managed by the Women and Family Division, on the site of the Jeongeup Integrated Regional Self-Support Center, and is continuously discussing the feasibility and support measures.

Mayor Yoo Jin-seop said, “We will devote our efforts to ensure that the construction of the Jeongeup Integrated Regional Self-Support Center proceeds as scheduled and becomes a source of dreams and hope for low-income groups.”
