Youngdeungpo Community Watch Promotes Customized Linkage Services

Youngtong-gu, Suwon City is actively identifying households in crisis situations and continuously promoting regional service linkages that include both legal and private sector support.

At the end of May, a case conference was held at the Welfare Counseling Office of the Social Welfare Division with the attendance of case management officers and social welfare specialists, where discussions took place regarding customized service support linkages for three households targeted for emergency assistance in crisis situations.

Examining the cases discussed that day, Mr. Lim's household faces the situation where he must raise three children as his spouse is hospitalized at a psychiatric hospital. All household members are currently participating in an alcohol counseling family program, and the children have been connected with youth services and university student mentoring.

The district plans to continue promoting support linkages tailored to specific needs by connecting services including counseling support through visits to crisis households and selecting them as case management subjects, ensuring that low-income individuals do not face hardship.
