Hwaseong Welfare Foundation Holds Social Welfare Workshop

The Hwaseong Welfare Foundation (Acting Chairman Baek Seung-gi) held a workshop for mid-level managers in the social welfare sector on the 21st at the North Hangang Training Center located in Namyangju City.

The workshop was attended by 40 people, including private institutions and organizations related to social welfare services as well as welfare civil servants, and focused on strengthening organic cooperation between the private and public sectors, reinforcing networks among local welfare institutions, enhancing employee capabilities, and promoting morale and harmony through healing programs.

In particular, given the heavy workload burden and resulting mental and physical stress faced by social welfare workers in recent times, the healing program with the theme of "healing for communication" received positive responses from attendees.

Acting Chairman Baek Seung-gi (Director of Welfare and Environment, Hwaseong City) offered remarks of encouragement, stating, "I hope this workshop will be an opportunity for exchange of information between private and public sectors and for cultivating a sense of community among local welfare institutions," and adding, "The well-being of social welfare service workers in the field is essential for raising citizens' perception of welfare benefits," while urging efforts to build a local community.
