The Kangwon Land Social Constitution Court Foundation signed an "agreement for supporting vulnerable youth in Kangwon's coal industry transition areas" on the 24th with the Kangwon Youth Center, Taebaek City Youth Center, Samcheok City Youth Center, and Yeongwol County Youth Business Unit (Clean Area).
The signing ceremony, held on the 24th at the foundation's meeting room in Jeongseon, was attended by officials including Kim Ik-rae, executive director of the foundation; Chae Hee-je, director of the Kangwon Youth Center; Lee Jin, team leader of the Samcheok City Youth Center; and Eom Dae-seop, chief of the strategic industry division of Yeongwol County.
This agreement was established to build a region-based cooperation system to early identify vulnerable youth facing difficulties such as isolation, withdrawal, family caregiving, borderline intellectual disability, preparation for independence, and financial vulnerability, and to support their daily life recovery and social participation.
The project will consist of identifying vulnerable youth through online and offline campaigns and business explanation sessions, as well as counseling and case management.
In particular, participating youth will be provided with up to 2 million won per person for self-care and growth expenses to help them recover their daily lives, achieve personal growth, and establish a foundation for social participation.
A Kangwon Land official, speaking to The Korea Times by phone, said, "Through cooperation with local youth centers, we will identify youth in need at an early stage and support them to connect healthily with society."
