Anti-poverty drive pushed in Kalinga

TABUK, Kalinga — The government’s Convergence Framework on the poverty reduction program is expected to have a major impact in solving the problems of the country’s poor, said Jeoffrey Garcia of the Department of Social Welfare and Development Field Office.

He said the Convergence Framework will showcase implementation of the department’s three major poverty alleviation programs — the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), Kapit Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan (Kalahi) and Self Employment Assistance para sa Kaunlaran (SEA-K).

The programs shall be implemented at the same time in identified beneficiary area, unlike previously, where each program had separate areas.
