Buenos Aires Province gender violence support programs

Overview

The government of Buenos Aires Province has expanded its social support frameworks through municipal cooperation. Governor Axel Kicillof and Minister of Women and Diversity Estela Díaz have formalized the adhesion of various municipalities to the ‘Programa de Fortalecimiento para la Salida de las Violencias de Género’.

This initiative provides six months of direct economic support to women and LGBTIQ+ individuals experiencing proven gender-based violence. The program includes specialized services such as legal advice, mental health support, vocational training, labor integration, and housing assistance. Minister Díaz noted that local municipalities are often the first to receive reports of violence, necessitating these specialized tools for local governance.

Recent developments have seen the expansion of physical infrastructure to support these goals. In Melchor Romero, Governor Kicillof and La Plata Mayor Julio Alak oversaw the delivery of 175 new homes specifically designated for women victims of gender-based violence and individuals discharged from the Alejandro Korn mental health hospital.

Additionally, the municipality of Patagones inaugurated the ‘Patricia Ilgner’ Protection House, named after a femicide victim. This facility is designed to offer safety, containment, and support for women and their children facing violence, utilizing municipal housing to provide a secure environment.
