Vacation care facilities for elementary school students in Incheon will expand from 35 to 74 locations next year

Incheon City announced on the 10th that it will expand the 'Elementary School Vacation Niche Care' support project next year to address the gap in care and meals for elementary school students during vacation.

This project was first introduced this year to relieve the burden of childcare on families who have difficulty caring for their children during vacation and to provide safe protection and stable meals to children.

Care facilities provide care, lunch, dinner, and snacks to elementary school students.

The city supported a total of 914 people from 35 locations in 6 counties and districts during this year's summer vacation period, July 27 to August 21.

In next year's survey of participating organizations, 74 facilities in 10 counties and districts expressed their intention to participate.

Facilities participating in the project provide care services from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm or 11:00 am to 8:00 pm on weekdays, depending on the type of operation.

Applications for this year's winter vacation care project will be accepted next month, and information on participating organizations can be found on the National Child Rights Guarantee website (www.ncrc.or.kr).
