🌸🤱 National Breastfeeding Awareness Month Celebration & Launching of the Measles-Rubella Supplemental Immunization Activity (MR SIA) 2026 💉❤️
The Municipality of Pasacao successfully celebrated the National Breastfeeding Awareness Month and officially launched the Measles-Rubella Supplemental Immunization Activity (MR SIA)—a meaningful event that highlighted our commitment to protecting the health of mothers and children.
The first part of the program focused on promoting breastfeeding and maternal health through inspiring advocacy messages, a heartfelt breastfeeding testimony, and the conduct of Breast Cancer Screening and Cervical Cancer Screening, emphasizing the importance of empowering mothers to prioritize their health and well-being.
The second part of the program marked the official Launching of the MR SIA, highlighted by the Pledge of Commitment of our local leaders and stakeholders, followed by the actual vaccination of children aged 6–59 months to protect them against measles and rubella. Together, we reaffirm our commitment to achieving a healthier and safer community for every child.
Our heartfelt gratitude goes to our Barangay Captains, Barangay Kagawads, Barangay Health Workers (BHWs), Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNSs), mothers, and all participants whose presence and active participation made this event a success.
Our deepest appreciation also goes to Ma'am Ysa Baesa Masakayan and Ma'am Liz Anne Doblon-Ramos, MLGOO IV, for your unwavering support and encouragement to our health and nutrition initiatives.
Together, let us continue to promote exclusive breastfeeding, protect our children through immunization, and build a healthier, stronger, and more resilient Pasacao.
