During the past several years, Guangzhou Women's Federation (in Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong Province) has played an important role in helping women better protect their legal rights and interests. For example, under the federation's guidance, Wanshixing Rights Protection Service Center has provided "one-stop" services to numerous residents (including women and children), so they can receive legal aid within a short time.

With the help of Guangdong and Guangzhou women's federations, Guangdong Women's Rights Protection and Information Service Station was established, in Guangzhou, in December 2014. Within a short time, the station established the rights-protection hotline, 020-38613861, to provide legal aid and psychological counseling to women.

In 2022, Guangzhou Women's Federation renamed the station Wanshixing Rights Protection Service Center. The center established a work mechanism, through which psychologists, lawyers, social workers and the federation's cadres work together, to help residents protect their legal rights and interests. That, in turn, has promoted social stability and harmony within families.
