The report summarizes the progress of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program in Cordillera Administrative Region from January to June 2012. It covers 75 municipalities and 2 cities, targeting over 54,000 households. Implementation is on track with over 90% of targets met for beneficiary coverage, cash grants disbursed, and attendance at family development sessions. Some challenges remain around beneficiary registration and validation, and updating compliance data. The regional office of the Department of Social Welfare and Development has developed new software to better manage program data and improve operations of the conditional cash transfer program.

As of June 2012
Project Title: Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps)
Implementing Agency: Department of Social Welfare and Development
Cordillera Administrative Region
Fund Source: Loan/Grant Proceeds
( ) GOP Peso Counterpart
(X) Loan TOTAL PROJECT
( ) Grant COST: P 745,512,348
Location/Area Coverage: 6 provinces, 7 congressional Districts, 2 cities, 75
Coverage: municipalities, 1,070 municipalities
Description: Under the Set 5 expansion, the program currently covers all the 75
municipalities and 2 cities in the region. However, not all barangays
are covered due to the targeting strategy for urbanized cities like
Baguio, wherein the poorest barangays identified rather than
saturating the entire city.
The program is aimed at targeting five out of the eight Millennium
Development Goals. It is intended to address the following MDGs:
reduce poverty and hunger (goal 1), achieve universal primary
education (goal 2), reduce child mortality (goal 4), improve maternal
health (goal 5), and promote gender equality and women’s
empowerment (goal 3). These are all achieved by reducing extreme
poverty and increasing human capital of the poorest households,
particularly in the areas of nutrition, education, and health.
Officially launched in late 2007, the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino
Program is the Philippine government’s version of the conditional
cash transfer (CCT)- a program that is widely practiced in
other countries. The program is patterned after the conditional cash
transfer program in Latin America and African countries which have
been proven successful as a poverty reduction and social
development measure (World Bank, 2009)
The program offers the following health and education cash grants to
beneficiary-households: 1) 500 pesos a month per household, or
6,000 pesos a year, for preventive health check-ups and vaccines of
pregnant women and of children with ages five years old and below;
2) 300 pesos a month per child, or 3,000 pesos a year, for his/her
educational expenses for one school year (10 months).
The educational assistance is given to each household for a
maximum of three children. To be eligible, children should be
between three to 14 years of age and enrolled either in a day-care
program or in elementary school.

2. Thus a household with three qualified children can get a subsidy of
1,400 pesos per month, or 15,000 pesos a year, for a maximum of
five years (Senate, 2010).
The program has six ( 6 ) conditionality that beneficiary-families
must comply with. These are the following:
1) Pregnant members of the household shall get pre-natal
care; childbirth shall be attended by skilled/trained health
professionals; and mothers shall get post-natal care
thereafter.
2) Children between 0-5 years old shall get regular preventive
health check-ups and receive immunizations, such as BCG,
DPT-OPV, anti-measles and hepatitis vaccines.
3) Children between 6-14 years old shall receive de-worming pills
twice a year
(Scheduled every five months, or every January and July of the
elementary school year).
4) Children between 3-5 years old shall go to day-care/pre-
school classes and attend 85 per cent of the time.
5) Children between 6-14 years old must be enrolled in school
and should attend classes 85 per cent of the time.
Starting this year, reporting period is every two (2) months. For the March-April, the
program was able to cover 94% of its target beneficiaries, while for the family
development session (FDS) is 92.64%.
On the financial aspect, Php 190.778 M or 91.47% was disbursed.

DSWD-CAR initiates software development for CCT
The new programs developed by DSWD-CAR are expected to improve the
conduct of community assemblies such as the one shown in this photo.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development through its regional office
in the Cordillera has initiated developments in information technology that are
expected to improve the implementation of the Pantawid Pamilya program.
With the expansion of the Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT), DSWD-CAR
personnel created applications that aim to store and utilize information for easier
control, access, safekeeping, and transfer of data for Pantawid Pamilya partner
beneficiaries.
The Pantawid Pamilya, which currently benefits some 54, 376 households in
the region, relies heavily on data management within its entire program cycle. The
need to maintain and to regularly update data storage is critical in its operation.
