Ulsan Ulju-gun Implements Special Protection Measures for Vulnerable Groups Against Heatwave

Ulsan Ulju-gun will establish and implement special protection measures from this month until September to ensure a safe and healthy summer for vulnerable groups in the region.

According to this plan, Ulju-gun will conduct a full survey targeting low-income vulnerable groups in the area to minimize heatwave damage amid this summer's record-breaking heatwave.

By the 14th, each eup and myeon will conduct focused investigations to confirm the demand for cooling supplies in target households and verify emergency safety (well-being) systems, providing customized support according to the target group.

Additionally, using designated donations from the Community Chest, special cooling expense support of 100,000 KRW per household will be provided this month to families burdened by cooling costs, and private sponsorship items such as cooling devices, summer blankets, and cool mats will be secured and distributed according to the needs of the recipients.

Furthermore, specialized projects for heatwave preparedness will be supported with project funds in eups, myeons, and local social security councils to provide practical assistance in preventing heatwave damage to vulnerable groups in the community.

An Ulju-gun official stated, “To prevent heatwave damage among vulnerable groups, we will establish a proactive and active response system based on public-private cooperation using available local resources,” adding, “We will do our best to ensure that vulnerable groups in the region can spend the summer safely and healthily.”
