The Cotabato City Office on Health Services - Adolescent Health and Development Program successfully conducted the Adolescent Job Aid 2.0 Skills Enhancement Training last November 25-27, 2025 at El Comedor in partnership with the Ministry of Health - Population Division in the person of Ms. Jeremy Becares VIlo-Toledo, LPT, the Population Officer II.
Adolescents in Cotabato City need accessible, accurate, and youth-friendly health services. The Adolescent Job Aid 2.0 offers updated guidance for addressing their key health concerns, but many health providers need improved skills to use it effectively. This training aimed to enhance providersโ knowledge and communication skills so they can deliver non-judgmental, adolescent-centered care. Strengthening these competencies helps improve service quality and supports better health outcomes for young people in the city.
