Today, as Chairperson of the Committee on Social Services, we submitted two proposed ordinances aimed at helping those who need support the most in our community.
1. Social Welfare Monitoring and Support Program for Living Alone Senior Citizens, Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), and Medically Indigent Individuals Living Alone β This program aims to regularly check on and assist elderly, disabled, and sick individuals who live alone. Itβs our way of making sure they are not neglected and have someone to rely on.
2. Proposed Ordinance for the Local Implementation of the Magna Carta for Public Social Workers β This is to support and protect our hardworking social workers. They deserve proper recognition, care, and fair treatment for the vital services they provide to the public.
These may be small steps, but they can make a big difference in the lives of many.
