Yesterday - With the aim of reiterating to LGUs their mandate of ensuring the presence and implementation of plans, programs, activities and services for the welfare of children, DILG Nueva Ecija, through the leadership of Atty. Ofelio A. Tactac, Jr. CESO V, commenced the 2025 Child – Friendly Local Governance Audit by conducting a Provincial Orientation via Zoom Meetings platform.

The orientation was attended by members of the Provincial Inter-Agency Monitoring Task Force (PIMTF), City and Municipal Social Welfare and Development Officers, Planning and Development Coordinators, Health and Nutrition Action Officers, representatives from DepEd, and CSO/NGO representatives.

Led by DILG Nueva Ecija’s Social Protection Team, the sessions focused on discussing the updated indicators of the audit under DILG MC No. 2024 – 160. The orientation also tackled the broader scope of the audit, which is the inclusion of provinces and barangays for the following audit years.

The Child-Friendly Local Governance Audit (CFLGA) is not merely a tool to gauge the adherence of LGUs to child-friendly governance but rather a propulsive force to uphold the welfare of children nationwide.

Yesterday - DILG Nueva Ecija visited Barangays Macabaclay, Olivete, and Vega in the Municipality of Bongabon and Barangay Namulandayan in the Municipality of Lupao to evaluate the implementation of the FY 2024 Retooled Community Support Program (RCSP) by gathering stakeholders’ feedback and recommendations.

The activity also served as a venue to refresh the barangay officials, functionaries, and constituents as well as their respective LGU RCSP Team on the dangers of communist armed conflict and its detrimental effect on peace and development. In the discussion of Provincial Director Atty. Ofelio A. Tactac, Jr. on the History of the Philippine Communist Movement, he strongly encouraged the leadership of the barangays to educate their respective communities especially the youth, and to exercise critical thinking and vigilance against the maneuvers of communist infiltration in the locality. At the conclusion of the program, DILG Nueva Ecija awarded generator set to each barangay.

The RCSP is an inclusive program that aims to address identified issues of the community by closing the governance and development gaps through provision of needed government programs, projects, and activities (PPAs) while ensuring that development is sustained and peace is being promoted.
