Gumi-si Operates 'Our Neighborhood Welfare Check-in' ... Identifying Welfare Crisis Households

For New Residents and Re-registered Residents

Operation of Report Forms and Simple Welfare Consultations

Gumi City in Gyeongbuk operates the ‘Our Neighborhood Welfare Check-in’ project using the moving-in and resident registration re-registration forms to early identify and support households in crisis that need help from the moving-in stage.

This project inserts a welfare consultation request item at the top of the relevant form, immediately connecting those in need among new residents or those re-registered after resident registration deletion to a customized welfare team, providing welfare services through comprehensive counseling.

In particular, the city plans to establish a detection system for early response by understanding the characteristics of crisis households, such as frequent residential moves and resident registration deletions, which lead to isolated households in difficult economic situations, and provide support accordingly.

Mayor Kim Jang-ho said, “We hope to lower the barriers to welfare access, carefully monitor from the very first stage of moving in, and help residents adapt well to their new environment through seamless and thorough welfare support.”

Gumi City is striving to improve accessibility to welfare services through one-stop support from visits to administrative welfare centers to welfare service linkage, and to establish a system for the continuous detection of welfare crisis households and socially isolated households.
