BEKASI (23 November 2021) - The Elderly Social Rehabilitation Assistance Program (ATENSI) was developed through three service bases, namely Family-based ATENSI, Community-based ATENSI, and Residential-based ATENSI. This time Social Rehabilitation Center "Budi Dharma" Bekasi carried out Residential-based Elderly Social Rehabilitation Assistance activities for the elderly.

 

Residential-based ATENSI provides direct services to the elderly in the Center, one of which is through Vocational Therapy which is carried out by developing the Elderly Agrotourism area.

 

Elderly agrotourism is one of the service innovations carried out by the "Budi Dharma" Center in Bekasi. Carrying the concept of green open space, this land was formed into an elderly-friendly area. Not fighting alone, "Budi Dharma" Center cooperates with PT Andalan Furnindo to develop it.

The total assistance reached Rp10,372,000, 00.

 

Previously, "Budi Dharma" Center has collaborated with PT Andalan Furnindo since 2017. Starting from sewing machine and audio assistance to pioneering Agrotourism through the assistance of citrus plant seeds as empowerment material for residential elderly.

 

Today, Tuesday (11/23/2021) a symbolic handover of aid in Elderly Agrotourism was held. The activity began with a welcoming speech, symbolic handing over of the love rope, sowing fish seeds, and ended with a group photo.
