[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Choi Ki-ho] Osan City held an opening ceremony for its Child Protection Specialized Agency at its Won-dong location on the 26th.
The newly opened Child Protection Specialized Agency will be responsible for case management to support psychological recovery and prevent recurrence of abuse for children who have suffered from domestic violence, and will be operated under the trusteeship of Good Neighbors, a social welfare organization.
The specialized agency is equipped with counseling rooms, psychological testing rooms, and play therapy rooms, with 14 staff members including counselors and psychotherapists who will identify the developmental status, environment, and needs of abused children to provide customized individual case management.
Previously, Osan City's Child Protection Specialized Agency received case management support through the Gyeonggi Hwaseong Child Protection Specialized Agency. With this opening, it is expected that faster and more coordinated responses will be possible when child abuse occurs within the city.
Mayor Lee Kwon-jae of Osan City said, "Through the opening of Osan City's Child Protection Specialized Agency, the rights of children to pursue happiness will be guaranteed, and Osan City will work together to ensure safe and happy lives for abused children and their families."
