Namyangju City (Mayor Choi Hyun-deok) announced on the 23rd that it will maintain its own postpartum care support regardless of the termination of Gyeonggi Province's program.

Gyeonggi Province will end its existing program after accepting applications through the 30th, citing the restructuring of maternal and child health programs and other reasons.

The support funds are provided in Gyeonggi local currency. Eligible recipients are families with newborns who have been registered as residents of Namyangju City from the date of birth to the application date. Applications must be made within 12 months of the child's birth.

Jung Taesik, Head of the Namyangju Public Health Center, stated, "We will actively guide eligible families regarding the application process and requirements so they do not miss out on the benefits." The application process and required documents can be checked at the local eup, myeon, or dong Administrative Welfare Center.
