The City Government of Caloocan, led by Mayor Dale Gonzalo “Along” Malapitan, conducted a free livelihood training for persons with disability (PWDs) and their families as well as for solo parents at Barangay 73 to help provide opportunities to the beneficiaries.

The Mayor stated that this is aligned with his vision to give every citizen equal means to earn a living and reaching out to the city’s most vulnerable sectors.

“Ang pagsasagawa natin ng libreng training ay bahagi ng ating paglalayon na mabigyan ng pantay-pantay na oportunidad ang bawat Batang Kankaloo na kumita o magkaroon ng sariling pangkabuhayan,” Mayor Along said.

Through the coordination of the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) at Persons with Disability Affairs Office (PDAO), a total of 40 individuals were taught how to make “puto,” a local delicacy and dishwashing liquid. 

According to PESO Officer-in-charge Violeta Gonzales, the said livelihood require minimal skill and a small capital.

“Madali lang pong matutunan at maliit lang po ang puhunan na kailangan para makapag-simula ng negosyo ng pagtitinda ng puto o paggawa ng dishwashing liquid. Kasama sa ating tinuturo ang pagbu-budget at pagpre-presyo ng kanilang mga produkto,” Ms. Gonzales said.

Meanwhile, PDAO Action Officer Kim Daeam Sabay stated that their department shall continue to coordinate with various organizations to help provide more opportunities for PWDs, in line with Mayor Along’s directive.

“Kaugnay pa rin po ng ating pagkalinga sa ating mga kababayang may kapansanan at sa ilalim ng direktiba ni Mayor Along, patuloy pong makikipagtulungan ang PDAO upang mas marami pang PWD ang magkaroon ng oportunidad, pangkabuhayan at trabaho sa lungsod,” Ms. Sabay said.

The local chief executive commended the coordination of the two local departments in helping ensure that the beneficiary sectors have access to government programs.

“Kinikilala po natin ang ating mga tanggapan, ang PESO at PDAO, sa inyong pagtutulungan na mabigyan ng oportunidad ang ating mga kababayang higit na nangangailangan. Lalo na po ang personal niyong pagbaba sa komunidad upang mapagserbisyuhan sila,” Mayor Along said.
