The presentation of the future Comprehensive Care Center for homeless people has focused the institutional visit made to the Bethany facilities in the Line of Conception. The project, which will be developed annexed to the main building of this entity, has been promoted thanks to the request of the City Council to a line of aid for public resources of residential care, and will have a financing of 1.2 million euros of the recovery, transformation and resilience plan, financed by the European Union.
During the visit, the Minister of Social Inclusion, youth, Families and Equality of the Junta de Andalucía, Loles López, was accompanied by the mayor of the Line of La Concepción, Juan Franco. Both were received by the director of Bethany, Begoña Arana, and knew the technical details of the project prepared by the Municipal Infrastructure Department.
