Gwangju Urban Corporation (President Kim Seungnam) announced on May 21 that its Housing Welfare Center recently conducted a "Visiting Housing Welfare Education" program for education welfare officers at various schools in Gwangju.

This program was designed to improve the welfare of children from vulnerable households by providing frontline education welfare officers with information on public rental housing and various housing support systems.

The education was conducted as part of the "2025 Customized Integrated Support Education Welfare Officer Training Program" by the Gwangju Western Education Support Office, and took place three times since last month. A total of 58 education welfare officers received tailored housing welfare training, and case-by-case consultations were also provided after the sessions.

The Housing Welfare Center is continuously carrying out promotional and educational activities for various groups. It provides customized education to local government housing welfare workers, neighborhood coordinators, residents, young people preparing for independence, single-person youth households, people with disabilities, and local self-support recipients. Over the past year, more than 400 people have completed the training.

Kim Seungnam, President of Gwangju Urban Corporation, stated, "We will actively identify children in households facing poor housing conditions and provide them with safe and pleasant living environments." He added, "We will continue to expand our educational efforts to prevent the emergence of housing blind spots caused by a lack of information."
