Nikos Hardalias sent a clear message in favor of equality, care, and meaningful support for those who need it most, through his recent visits to social solidarity facilities in Attica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At a time that highlights the value of solidarity, such as Easter, the Regional Governor emphasized that supporting vulnerable social groups is not merely a political choice, but a moral obligation that concerns society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Support through actions, not just words<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Region of Attica currently funds 23 Day Care and Day Support Centers for People with Disabilities (PWD) through the Attica Regional Program 2021-2027, with a total annual budget of 6.5 million euros. Through these facilities, 617 of our fellow citizens receive daily care, support, and opportunities for a more independent and dignified life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Where care becomes action<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Key stops on the visits were the Spastic Protection Society \u201cOpen Door\u201d in Argyroupoli and the \u201cFlame\u201d Association in Goudi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At \u201cPorta A\u03bd\u03bf\u03b9\u03c7\u03c4\u03ae,\u201d an organization with a long-standing presence since 1972, free rehabilitation and support services are provided to children, adolescents, and adults with cerebral palsy. It is a place where difference is not viewed as a limitation, but as part of human diversity that deserves care, respect, and equal opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Similarly, \u201cFlame\u201d serves as a pillar of support for children with cancer and their families, offering not only practical assistance but also psychological support. There, the concept of inclusion takes on a deeper meaning, through the daily struggle for dignity and hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A society for all<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In his remarks, Mr. Hardalias emphasized that society becomes more just when it leaves no one behind. Strengthening structures that support people with disabilities and their families is not just about welfare\u2014it is about every person\u2019s right to live with dignity, acceptance, and equal opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The message is clear: inclusion is not an abstract concept, but a daily practice. And it is built through policies, initiatives, and people who choose to stand by those who truly need it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nikos Hardalias sent a clear message in favor of equality, care, and meaningful support for those who need it most, through his recent visits to social solidarity facilities in Attica.
