Family Program
The PBM Family is a continuing voluntary
program for the parents of our children
beneficiaries whereby they are provided
access to programs on values formation,
husband-wife communications, parental
handling of a disabled child and livelihood
training for income augmentation.
A
regular quarterly assembly is held
for all members during which they
are given additional information as
to new opportunities for livelihood
activities. This is done through a
seminar type presentations by those
offering these opportunities.
They
are also provided with referrals to
other NGOs providing free computer
training working in partnership with
Comchest Manpower Development Foundation,
free English proficiency classes,
free cataract operation, eye check-ups
and eye glasses.
Through this program we are also enlightening
and assisting the parents to secure
and maintain a PhilHealth card under
the “Individually Paying Program"
to ensure protection for the whole
family for their medical requirements.
We
work in partnership with the Asian
Social Institute for the training
programs on values formation and skills
training for livelihood opportunities.
We
also work closely with PhilHealth
who provide seminars during assembly
days on the procedures in securing
a card and its coverage capabilities.
This program
is a pre-requisite for them to access
the micro financing facility of the
Chandumal
Mirani Assistance Fund.
