A community center is a resting place for local residents. It issues certificates and provides various real-life welfare services. In most cases, a community center is comprised of three teams.
The civil administraion team is in charge of issuing resident ID cards, as well as various certification papers such as personal seal certificates. The welfare administration team supports recipients of basic living subsidies. It also supports single-parent households with subsidies for child rearing and living costs. The health and welfare team seeks out residents in welfare blind spots to provide living costs and medical services.
Community centers offer distinguished services to anyone who visits. Our local community center recently had a soundbar installed to play soothing music. Visitors can go about their business in a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere, as if they were at a cafe.
