[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] Sangju City in Gyeongbuk announced on the 8th that the Mental Health Welfare Center will operate a visiting mental health service called the 'On(溫) Sim Jeon Sim' psychological support program for small business owners struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.


A mental health self-diagnosis tool that can measure symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress will be distributed to small business owners.

Hygiene kits consisting of KF94 masks, hot packs, cleansing tissues, and acupressure massage items will also be provided to them.


Sangju City plans to provide continuous psychological support to small business owners in the area, starting with the merchants' association of Jungang Market, to overcome COVID Blue.



Byun Seong-hye, director of the Sangju Mental Health Welfare Center, said, "We provide free counseling, testing, and treatment costs not only for small business owners but also for citizens experiencing mental health difficulties, so please feel free to reach out whenever you need help."
