Social welfare services extend hours on two days

Benestar horari1Services of the Formentera Council office of social welfare will extend their public opening times to include two weekday afternoons, times the offices had previously remained closed to the public. Starting in November, the offices of social services will assure a morning schedule of 9 am to 2 pm, Monday through Friday, and an afternoon schedule of 5 to 7 pm on Mondays and Thursdays.

Afternoon service will be identical to the service such as it has always been provided in the mornings. The change means a host of services - social workers, departments handling issues related to immigration, minors and family services, as well as the scheduling service for appointments with the National Police in Eivissa - will now be operational both morning and afternoon.

According to councillor of social welfare Dolores Fernández, the new schedule reflects the  effort by the Council “to make social services more accessible.”
