Deputy Director Kun-huang Chen, Social Affairs Bureau, said, the disabled people usually limit their social involvement due to the general stereotypes, physical limitations and the care burdens of the family. At the same time when the central government is facilitating senior community care center services, the City Government is dedicated to driving the disabled people to move in the communities they are familiar with. So many passionate community development associations and people organizations are called for joining in the arrays of center services.
「It’s nice to have you all!」Director Chen has expressed his appreciation to the leaders and the volunteers of these 37 centers; the goal of the services facilitated by the City Government is to see the physically disabled people will walk out to interact with the others. The volunteers routinely provide on-site services will engage the disabled people with the health promotional activities. Through the achievement show today, all the volunteering physically disabled people and family were expected to have a lot of gainings, no matter if the were awarded or not.
The officer of Social Affairs Bureau has pointed out, the City Government has implemented the disabled welfare to establish the first initiated disabled community care centers with the earnings from the allocated profits of public benefit lottery in Taichung to make the physically disabled people to feel「together to be warm」in the communities.
