Public-Private Partnership to Eliminate Welfare Blind Spots

Mayor Park Dong-sik is holding a meeting to discuss the prevention of solitary deaths and support for welfare blind spots.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sacheon City, Gyeongnam Province, held a “Meeting for the Prevention of Solitary Deaths and the Discovery and Support of Welfare Blind Spots” to identify households in welfare blind spots and socially isolated households, and to protect at-risk households through service support.

On this day, 50 participants including chairpersons of the Eup, Myeon, and Dong Community Security Councils, team leaders, and staff in charge of welfare blind spots attended to discuss various measures for discovering and supporting welfare at-risk households that are difficult to detect through the welfare blind spot discovery system.

There was also a session to listen to the practical difficulties faced by the chairpersons of the Eup, Myeon, and Dong Community Security Councils, who are working hard on resource discovery and service development at the front lines.

The city urged the chairpersons of the Eup, Myeon, and Dong Community Security Councils to play a role as a human safety net that directly discovers welfare blind spots not covered by institutional support, along with an explanation of the system that can provide support when urgent crisis situations occur.

Mayor Park Dong-sik said, “I ask you to carefully monitor to prevent solitary deaths and the like,” and added, “We will spare no effort to actively support the implementation of ‘Happy City Sacheon’ by responding to various welfare needs in the future and providing customized services.”
