The newly opened Anseong City Child Protection Agency is a place dedicated to protecting children who have suffered abuse. A total of 10 staff members, including clinical psychologists and counselors, will work here. The facility includes one psychological treatment room and two counseling rooms, creating a comfortable environment where abused children and their guardians can receive counseling.


The agency plans to provide case management, psychological therapy, and specialized counseling centered on children and families, while also promoting child abuse prevention projects in cooperation with the local community.


Until now, there was no related institution in the Anseong area, so the Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Child Protection Agency in Pyeongtaek City had jurisdiction over related tasks. However, with the opening of this new agency, the city expects that case management for child abuse in the region will become more efficient.



Kim Bora, mayor of Anseong City, said, "I hope the Anseong City Child Protection Agency will be a starting point that opens a better future for the children in our region," adding, "We will do our best to create an environment where every child in Anseong can grow freely and happily without any danger or abuse."
