Ministry of Social Affairs Reaches Children of Remote Indigenous Communities in Air Hitam District, Sarolangun
SAROLANGUN (12 April 2021) - The Ministry of Social
Affairs through the "Alyatama" Children's Center in Jambi provides
Community-Based Child Rehabilitation Assistance (ATENSI) services in Bukit
Suban Village and Pematang Kabau Village, Sarolangun District, Jambi Province.
Following the direction
of the Minister of Social Affairs, Tri Rismaharini, KAT is a group that has not
received civil rights yet so that their data is sought to be integrated with
Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS) so that they can access various
government programs. Through the assessment and data collection of the Children
of Suku Anak Dalam (SAD) in Sarolangun Regency, it is believed that it can help
accelerate equality for them.
Children Emergency ATENSI
activities were carried out on 91 SAD children in 3 points of the Bukit Suban
village settlement, namely Seputih Kayu I, Seputih Kayu II and Seputih Kayu III
with a target of ATENSI services as many as 65 children, while in Pematang
Kabau Village there were 26 children.
In this activity, a
3-year-old child with physical disability since the age of 7 months was also
found after experiencing a high fever for days.
"The ATENSI Children
in Remote Indigenous Community is a very useful program, with this activity it
is hoped that in the future it will become a sustainable activity involving all
elements of the surrounding community, such as community leaders, educational
leaders and people living in areas close to the SAD residence", said
Elyadi as Social Worker of the Children's Center" Alyatama "in Jambi.
"We will help all
the activities carried out by the Alyatama Children's Center, especially the
activities carried out with a good purpose, namely helping the Children of SAD
in Bukit Suban in fulfilling the necessary needs following the results
of the assessment," added Lasino as the Bukit Suban Community Leader.
On the way to three location points in Bukit Suban Village, the team consisting of Social Workers and Social Instructors needed extra energy because the terrain was quite heavy to get to that point. But the fatigue paid off after arriving at the location with smiles from the SAD children who had been waiting for the arrival of the "Alyatama" Children's Center team in Jambi.
