At this time, it has created the Municipal Council of Equality to facilitate the participation of all groups fighting for equality and has strengthened the Center for Care Violence (CAVI), extending the hours of its staff, both psychologists as social and other workers, to provide maximum facilities to users.
We have launched continuous campaigns of prevention and awareness against gender violence, aimed at all ages.
We must emphasize the success of which have been carried out in institutes, where the response has been massive, and whose motto was if you feel stifled, is not love.
Education is one of the main pillars in the fight for equality in all areas.
In addition, cultural visits have been organized with associations of housewives throughout the municipality, which begin in September.
