Suwon Metropolitan Government Housing Corporation's Family Women Center Launches 'Menopause Support Program for Middle-Aged Adults'

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Lee Min-jeong] The Suwon Family Women Center, operated by Suwon Metropolitan Government Housing Corporation (President Lee Young-in), is taking steps to support self-care and emotional recovery for Suwon residents experiencing menopause.

According to the corporation on the 19th, the Suwon Family Women Center will launch a menopause support program for middle-aged adults with the theme "The Second Spring of My Life" starting from the 5th of next month.

Menopause is a condition in which individuals experience physical and mental changes such as memory decline and depression due to a sharp decrease in hormone secretion. Symptoms can appear from the 40s onward regardless of gender.

The middle-aged self-care program through various educational classes and expert counseling is open to Suwon residents.

The program will be held twice in March (1st period) and September (2nd period), recruiting 30 participants per period.

The 8-week program consists of psychological stabilization communication education through journaling and drawing, group psychology specialist counseling and employment counseling, gong fu exercise and jazz dance classes, and social contribution activities.

Registration for the 1st period will be accepted through the corporation's website until the 4th of next month.

President Lee Young-in stated, "We have prepared this program to help middle-aged adults recover their mental health," and added, "We hope this program becomes a source of new vitality during middle age."
