Castalla starts work on the 1st Zonal Strategic Plan for Social Services
Castalla Town Council has also begun work on the 1st Zonal Strategic Plan for Social Services with the aim of promoting social welfare and achieving greater community equality. Through a comprehensive analysis of the current situation in Castalla, strategic lines will be developed to improve the resources and services of the Social Services.

In this way, the Consistory has launched the initiative with the aim of providing comprehensive support to people in situations of dependency, exclusion or lack of protection. In this way, it complies with the objectives of the Valencian Public System of Social Services and with the regulation of the map of inclusive social services.
