CHILDHOPE ASIA PHILIPPINES The Outreach and Protection / Education on the Streets Program Progress Report for October to December 2012 (Since 1989) I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION (Areas covered / Street Educators Assigned) There was a decrease in the number of sessions / classes on Alternative education1 for the months of October, November and December due to numerous invitations from different corporations, groups and individuals to the street children to participate in different outreach activities like Christmas party, gift giving and feeding program. However, psychosocial intervention (PSI) sessions such as group and individual counselling and case conferences among others were continuously conducted among the street children who are assessed to be in need of the said service. The assigned social workers also focused on the street children willing to be referred to recovery centers/shelters and to the street children participants who have completed the modules to know their learnings and insights and how will they be able to apply it in their everyday lives. Last reporting period, Childhope entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with Barangay San Lorenzo, Makati City to assist the street children in the area particularly in Pasay Road (Shoemart, Greenbelt and Glorietta) and Dasmariñas Village. The profiling of street children in Brgy. San Lorenzo was completed and submitted by the street educators assigned in the area. However, the implementation of the second phase of the project as well as the Street Education program in the area was suspended last November 2012 due to lack of budget and also because the barangay will be very busy in the local election for the next six (6) months. Hopefully, after the election, Childhope will continue its services to the said barangay. Table 1.

II. STREET CHILDREN ASSISTED Table 2: Classification of Street Children According to Sex Street Children Assisted Male Female New Participants Ongoing Participants Total Total 12 11 23 386 398 297 308 683 706 For the period of October to December 2012, a total of 706 street children were reached and served, of whom only 23 or 3.3% were new participants/contacts. The number of street children assisted decreased by 21% or 184 street children as compared to the previous reporting period due to the following reasons: Massive rescue operations conducted by the national DSWD and LGU within the reporting period re: “Paskong Ligtas” Project; and Minimized the conduct of sessions and other activities in the area due to insufficient funds. Instead the street educators were asked to spend time to do their documentation/ filing in the office along with attending many outreach activities with the younger street children (8 to 12 years old). Table 3 below shows that more than half or 69% of street children assisted during the reporting period were under the category of children of street families or those whose parents are also street dwellers. However, Childhope’s first priority group, which are the street-based children or those who were abused, abandoned, and live alone on the street follows second with a total of 23% or 164 of the total number served. A total of 54 or 8% of children served are community-based street children or those who work or beg on the streets but still go home daily to their families in the communities after working.

FGD’s are conducted to assess how the children apply their learnings in their daily life. Among the major 4th Quarterly Street Education Report 2012 Page 3 of 13 behavioral indicators observed among the street children during the reporting period were as follows: Show respect towards other children and to adults by using “po” and “opo” and avoiding foul words, and using traditional hand blessing gestures; Have reduced engagement in negative behavior such as use of prohibited drugs and other substances, stealing, snatching; Have developed confidence in expressing one’s self to others; Participate in sessions even without their peers and also arrive on time during sessions; Volunteer to perform certain tasks/assignments; and Have learned to follow instructions and rules. However, not all street children participants are able to apply their learning in their everyday lives due to peer pressure. Thus, the social workers assigned are continuously conducting psycho-social interventions (group and individual counselling) among the street children. C. Alternative Learning System (Basic Education) Table 5. Alternative Learning System (ALS) – Basic Education NUMBER OF STREET CHILDREN WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE ALS Basic Literacy Program (BLP) with module Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) Program Male 37 21 Female 14 12 Total 51 33 For the reporting period, a total of thirteen (13) Basic Education classes in ALS- A&E and BLP were conducted in the areas of Mayon, Blumentritt, Morayta, Divisoria/ Binondo, Lawton, Luneta/ Pier, Ermita/ Malate and NAIA. Below is the breakdown of classes: A&E = 5 classes BLP = 8 classes There is an additional one (1) BLP class for the period in the area of Pier, Manila. On the contrary, two (2) A&E classes were dissolved in the area of Sucat, Parañaque and Morayta, Manila. The street children participants in Sucat and Morayta were already referred to partner institutions such as Aruga Center and Kapatiran Kaunlaran Foundation Inc. (KKFI). Last November 25, there were 24 children who took the DepEd A&E examination. The result of the exam will be published in print and in the DepEd website in March 2013. D. Financial Education Project / Service Skills Training There were twenty (20) savers within the reporting period conducted with a total savings amounting to Php 263.00. The decrease in the savings of street children is due to the fact that they hardly find an income on the street considering that DSWD also launched an advocacy to the public not to give alms to children on the streets. The street children also prioritized buying their daily food whenever they earn a small amount of money while the rest of the children spent their money on Christmas holiday. The other older children trained on Financial Education are no longer anymore visible in the area; hence identification of new participants to be trained on Financial Education will be conducted in areas where children are already inactive. FGD’s and 4th Quarterly Street Education Report 2012 Page 4 of 13 motivational sessions will also be strengthened to sustain the interest and motivate children to continue to save even with very minimal amount. In addition, one child withdrew his saving from the program to be used as capital for a small business. Below were the service skills trainings conducted within the reporting period: Service Skills Training No. Of street children Area Conducted participants Car washing 7 NAIA Recycled Bottle Design 15 Ermita/Luneta Housekeeping Training 23 Blumentritt, NAIA/Sucat Entrepreneurship Training 20 NAIA/Blumentritt Nine (9) participants from the housekeeping training were qualified for the examination on NCII2 at Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA); eight (8) of them passed the examination last December 2012. Participants for the car washing underwent counselling sessions before they attend their four (4) days on-the-job training to different partner establishments. Car washing participants underwent the OJT in Malate where they were given the opportunity to be employed in the car washing shop after they passed their OJT and show good attitudes. While the housekeeping participants had their OJT in Pension house located in Apacible and Pandacan, Manila and they were also given the opportunity to be employed once they pass their OJT and show positive output in their work. Three (3) of the housekeeping training participants are scheduled to take the NCII examination this January 2013. Street children trained on silk screen printing was contracted by Childhope to print the T-shirts of street children participants of Youth Civic Engagement project and also for the participants of an outreach activity sponsored by Medicard Foundation. While those street children trained in beauty culture/ hair cutting, cosmetology and massage are presently practicing their skills in their respective areas among their fellow street children. A few of these children are also earning money whenever they render services to street adults in the area. CHAP Voc. Tech Coordinator is coordinating with Reyes Haircut and Beauty Salon for their possible OJT placement. Moreover, five (5) street children trained on cell phone repair work in a cell phone repair shop while four (4) of them are practicing their skills by repairing cell phones of other people on the street. Meanwhile, one of the participants in the cooking workshop was hired as a crew member in a fast food eatery and the others are working in small canteens (carinderia). 2 NC II performs prescribe range of functions involving known routines and procedures; has limited choice and complexity of functions, and has little accountability/ (http://www.tesda.gov.ph/uploads/File/RelatedTvetInfo/The%20TVET%20Glossary%20of%20Terms,%2 04th%20Edition.pdf) 4th Quarterly Street Education Report 2012 Page 5 of 13 The street educators continue to monitor the street children trained in different skills and are also exploring the possible OJT placement of these children. E. Skills Development Seventy six (76) street children from the areas of Mayon, Blumentritt, Baclaran, Luneta, Lawton/ TM kalaw and Tahanan Sta. Luisa attended Basic Computer Literacy classes within the reporting period. Out of these 76 participants, thirty four (34) completed and graduated from the program. At present, 56 children are currently attending the class including new identified children participants from Lawton and Luneta. Identification of additional participants for the computer class is on-going. About twenty (20) street children from different areas participated in the Physical Education and Sports Activities. The Philippine Rugby Football Union (PRFU) conducts regular session on football among street children from the areas of Blumentritt and Morayta every Friday at Quezon City circle. About 20-25 street children from Luneta, TM Kalaw, Lawton and Ermita had their regular sessions on dancing and acting workshops facilitated by volunteers from the Asia Pacific College held in the Children’s area, Arroceros Park, Manila. Eight (8) children from the areas of Luneta and Ermita were selected to join the theatre workshop conducted by UP Pahinungod, Manila. They were given a major role in the stage play which was launched in December 2012. About 35 to 40 children from different areas attended Rock-Education sessions (singing, dancing and playing different musical instruments) every Saturday in the Deutsche Knowledge Services (DKS) office. Sixteen (16) children from Ermita, Lawton/TM Kalaw and Luneta are attending different skills training activities e.g. swimming, cooking, sports and recreation at the Emilio Aguinaldo College (EAC)-International School every Saturday. F. Health and Medical Services For the period covered, there were 782 medical consults managed by the Mobile Health Clinic. A total of 845 cases were seen during this quarter. Among the top cases seen were as follows: bacterial and viral respiratory infections, dental caries, hyperactive airways syndrome, and systemic viral illness. Among the children patients seen, 251 children were assisted with well-child consultations, i.e. they had no subjective complaints during check-up and were found to be well and normal at the time of examination. This is emphasized to be a good parameter to measure the health-seeking behavior of children beneficiaries. They do not only see the physician when they get sick but also give due importance to prevention from being sick. In addition, there were 8 street children participants who were diagnosed with primary pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). These children were given the appropriate treatment and medications they need to take for the next six (6) months. 4th Quarterly Street Education Report 2012 Page 6 of 13 G. Leadership Training and Participation among Street Children Junior Health Workers (JHWs) There are 53 active JHWs at present including the newly trained.

Some JHWs referred eight (8) street children to health centers/ hospitals for medical check-up and medication. JHWs continue to administer first-aid treatment and conduct sessions on Primary Health Care (PHC) among their fellow street children. They also assist in the Mobile Health Clinic activities. Arlene Pagamocan, one of the JHWs attended the 1st Regional Youth Summit on the Prevention of Early Pregnancy which was held last December 12, 2012. Junior Child Rights Advocates (JCRAs) For the reporting period, there were fifty (50) active JCRAs. JCRAs assist the street educators in their respective areas during alternative education sessions and outreach activities.

Agenda discussed were as follows: Review of their roles as JCRAs and JHWs; Accomplishment reports; Plans of Action; Problems encountered and how these were addressed; Participants’ performance in school; and Orientation on child participation in child protection. H. Educational Assistance Program (EAP) for Formal and Non-Formal Basic Education Breakdown of street children beneficiaries of Education Assistance Program (EAP) are as follows: Elementary Level – 14 beneficiaries; Secondary Level – 30 beneficiaries; and College Level – 6 beneficiaries Out of fifty (50) children enrolled in the formal school, 46 children regularly attend their classes while 4 (1 in college level and the other 3 enrolled in secondary level) had dropped out from school due to family problems/ issues and frequent absences. The social worker assisted the drop out children with 4th Quarterly Street Education Report 2012 Page 7 of 13 counselling interventions and also referred them to the psychologist for initial assessment. Regular monthly meetings and group counselling sessions are continuously conducted to closely monitor the children’s performance in school. Regular provisions of monthly allowances to children were disbursed on time to support their daily school needs. Tutorial classes in Math in the Childhope office are continuously attended by fifteen (15) EAP children once a week facilitated by a volunteer, Mr. Chipps Guevara. Three (3) EAP beneficiaries from Ermita and Lawton who passed the entrance examination for scholarship in high school at Emilio Aguinaldo College (EAC)-International School (IS) regularly attend their classes.

One of the CHAP Board members, Mrs. Didit Vander Linden helps to monitor the children beneficiaries. J. Nutrition Feeding and Material Relief Assistance The relief assistance is regularly provided among the street children participants. Most of the areas where Childhope operates received used clothes and toiletries from individual and corporate donors. For this period, most of the street children participants received grocery items while some received Noche Buena packages from the sponsor of the outreach activities they attended and participated. In addition, the Nuestra Señora De Guia Ermita Parish still continues to conduct nutrition feeding daily among the 70 street children ages 8 to 12 years old.
