Social and security initiatives in Atizapán de Zaragoza

Overview

The municipal government of Atizapán de Zaragoza has implemented several social and security initiatives. The administration launched the second phase of the Salario Familiar program, distributing 150 million pesos to approximately 20,000 families to support household economies and community services. Concurrently, the municipality inaugurated the “Sí al Desarme, Sí a la Paz” campaign, which offers cash incentives for the voluntary surrender of firearms, ammunition, and explosives to improve public safety.

In local civic engagement, members of the Second Youth Council (Cabildo Juvenil) proposed new social welfare measures. A key proposal involves the creation of a ‘Casa Hogar’ (shelter home) to provide residential care for children and adolescents affected by domestic violence, abandonment, or family disintegration. This follows reports of 668 domestic violence cases in the municipality during 2025. Other youth-led suggestions include establishing safe routes for students and creating a Diversity Care Module (MOADI).
