Compostela Valley Province---“We made significant progress in promoting the core rights of our children- the right to survival and development, the right to protection and the right to participation. Our aspiration is simple to have a gold life for all most especially to every child in the province,” this was part of the message of Governor Jayvee Tyron L. Uy as he deliver his Local State of the Children’s Report (LSOCR) at the Arresgado Auditorium, Tagum City, Davao del Norte on November 26, 2019.
The activity is in line with the “27th National Children’s Month Celebration” with the theme: “KARAPATANG PAMBATA: Patuloy na Pahalagahan at Gampanan Tungo sa Magandang Kinabukasan.”
Attending the program were the Provincial Officials, Municipal Mayors together with their child development workers of the eleven municipalities, municipal social welfare and development officers (MSWDO), child development learners, parents of the learners, sulong dunong beneficiaries and from the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office (PSWDO).
Governor Uy reported that there are 503 functional development centers in the province, nearly half of which are accredited by Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). This means that they have passed standards set by the national government. These centers are functional due to hard-work of the 505 child development workers; 51 percent of which are accredited by DSWD and the centers cater to nearly 18,000 learners all around the province.
