Acting Governor Ha Byung-pil said, "The welfare center has played an important role in promoting the human rights of disabled people in our region and supporting their social participation," adding, "I am grateful for the efforts and passion of the director and staff, even though operating the welfare center has been challenging due to COVID-19."
