Gyeonggi Provincial Government

Gyeonggi Province is recruiting service providers to offer 24-hour one-on-one support for individuals with the most severe developmental disabilities until the 22nd of this month.

The selected providers will deliver care services from Monday to Friday, excluding weekends and public holidays.

Eligibility requires nonprofit organizations with the capability and experience in providing services to people with developmental disabilities, having a main or branch office within the province, and able to serve a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 10 individuals. Applications can be submitted either independently or as a consortium.

Seobongja, Director of the Gyeonggi Province Disability Independence Support Division, stated, "Through meaningful daytime activities and safe residential support for individuals with the most severe developmental disabilities, we expect them to enjoy a healthy and happy life as members of the community, while also alleviating the caregiving burden on their guardians. We hope many qualified providers within the province will participate."

Meanwhile, Gyeonggi Province plans to recruit individuals with developmental disabilities who will receive the services by the end of June, based on a comprehensive assessment of disability severity, daily living skills, communication abilities, and support needs.
