Social welfare generally refers to a multidimensional economic, social, and political status. Its primary aim is to preserve the human dignity, to increase the responsibility of society towards individuals, and to enhance the capabilities of the society in individual and collective areas. The current paper aims to explain social welfare and its impact on the sense of security using documentary and survey research methods (closed-ended Likert-type scale) among Isfahani residents. Cluster sampling technique was used in the study. A sample of 384 residents of Isfahan was randomly selected based on their age, gender, and location of residence. The data was analyzed using SPSS and Amos. The results indicated a direct and significant relationship between the two variables of social capital and socio-economic status and the variable of social welfare. Moreover, there was a direct and significant relationship between social welfare as a dependent variable and the the sense of security. The structural equation modelling of the research indicated that the collected data were confirmed within the theoretical framework of the study.
