Family Secretary Suspends Service on This Tuesday in PG
Family Secretary of Ponta Grossa suspends service on this Tuesday (10), from 13h to 15h, for staff training
The Municipal Secretariat of Family and Social Development (SMFDS) of Ponta Grossa will have the public service temporarily suspended on Tuesday (10), from 1 pm to 3 pm. The measure also includes the services provided by the Superintendence of Housing.
According to Prefeitura de Ponta Grossa, the interruption occurs due to the participation of municipal servants in a training on racial literacy, an activity that integrates the programming alluding to the Day of Black Consciousness, celebrated on November 20.
The initiative seeks to increase the knowledge and awareness of professionals about racial issues, contributing to a more inclusive and respectful public attention to diversity.
Attendance will resume at 3 pm
The Secretariat advises residents who need to use the services of the portfolio or the Superintendence of Housing to be aware of the temporary change in the opening hours.
The service will resume normally from 3 p.m. this Tuesday (10).
The suspension will be only two hours, without indication of changes in the functioning of the services on the other days of the week.
Training integrates actions of Black November
The training of the servants is part of the activities related to the Day of Black Awareness, a date dedicated to reflection on the history, culture and contribution of the black population to Brazilian society, in addition to the confrontation with racism and racial discrimination.
Racial literacy involves the understanding of racial inequalities and the identification of discriminatory practices, contributing to the construction of more egalitarian relations, including in the care provided by public bodies.
