Previously, there were only two service providers, limiting the options available to clients, which led to numerous complaints.

Accordingly, the city re-designated two institutions, Saemsotneun Gippeum Psychological Counseling Research Institute and Aizen Psychological Cognitive Research Institute, and newly designated Sarang Ai Family Counseling Research Institute to offer a wider range of choices and ensure smooth access to appropriate services.

The institutions provide services aimed at improving the mental and sensory functions and behavioral development of children with disabilities, including cognition, communication, and adaptive behavior. Disabled individuals wishing to use these services can apply or inquire at the administrative welfare center of their local jurisdiction.

Mayor Park Hyung-deok of Dongducheon City stated, “With the developmental disability activity service project starting anew next year, we will work to eliminate blind spots in care for residents with developmental disabilities.” He added, “We will continue to strive to discover and provide various services that meet the diverse needs of disabled individuals to enhance their independent living and quality of life.”
