In Xinguara, Segup trains over 60 professionals for the Pró-Mulher Pará program
In addition to public safety, the training also included workers from the protection and assistance network
Aiming to expand the network of protection and assistance to women in the State, the Secretary of Public Security and Social Defense (Segup) conducted training for 62 professionals for the service in the Pró-Mulher Pará program in the municipality of Xinguara, in the Araguaia region. The course was taught through the Directorate of Public Security Policies and Social Prevention (DPS) and the Integrated Operations Center (CIOp), linked to Segup, this Tuesday (26).
The training was held in two shifts, morning and afternoon, for professionals working in the protection and support network for women in vulnerable situations, as well as other assistance agencies. Representatives from the Municipal Women's Council, Maria do Pará Coordination, Social Assistance Reference Center (CRAS), Specialized Social Assistance Reference Center (CREAS), Public Ministry of Pará, Civil Police, Military Police, Xinguara City Hall, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Social Assistance, and the Court of Justice of the State of Pará were present.
For Ualame Machado, head of Segup, the Pró-Mulher program is a significant milestone in combating domestic and gender violence in Pará. “We are constantly working in an integrated manner to ensure that victims receive support, protection, and justice. For this, the training work we carry out throughout the Pará territory, encompassing professionals from various areas, is essential. This type of logistics is crucial to ensure specialized and humanized service,” concluded the manager.
Among the topics addressed, there were discussions on neuropsychological issues that motivate the victim to remain in the cycle of violence, as well as promoting understanding of how professionals in the network can assist women in situations of violence to break the cycle.
For Greykiulla Soares, Secretary of Urban and Rural Development of Xinguara, the presence of public security in rural areas is essential to ensure the well-being of women working in the fields. “We are, together with social assistance, developing projects and vocational courses to bring these rural women to the city, not as a rural exodus, but to show them that their shine is in their self-esteem, which is much more important. The self-esteem that comes from within them, to prove that more than 70% of food comes from family farming,” explained the secretary.
