Changwon Special City Takes Action to Support Victims of Stalking, Dating Violence, and Digital Sex Crimes
Operation of the 'Integrated Counseling Center for Female Violence Victims and Digital Sex Crimes'
Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam will operate the ‘Integrated Counseling Center for Women Victims of Violence’ and the ‘Integrated Counseling Center Specialized in Digital Sex Crimes’ starting January to support victims of stalking, dating violence, digital sex crimes, and more.
In December last year, the city was selected for two projects under the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family’s 2024 national funding: ‘Operation of Integrated Counseling Center for Women Victims of Violence’ and ‘2024 National Funded Project for Integrated Counseling Center Specialized in Digital Sex Crimes.’
The Integrated Counseling Center for Women Victims of Violence is located in Seongsan-gu, and the Integrated Counseling Center Specialized in Digital Sex Crimes is located in Masanhappo-gu.
The counseling centers provide various services to help women who have suffered from stalking, dating violence, digital sex crimes, and other forms of violence maintain a stable life after the crime.
They also support tasks such as accompanying victims to investigative agencies and courts, linking medical and free legal assistance, monitoring and deleting illegally distributed recordings, and more.
