The advocacy session featured two distinguished health professionals from the Victorias City Health Office. April Golda Acuรฑa, Senior Supervising Officer IV, delivered an extensive talk on โ€œAdolescent Health and Development,โ€ guiding participants through the physical, emotional, and social transitions and challenges of teenage years. Meanwhile, Mary Grace Dela Rosa, Nurse II, conducted an โ€œHIV AIDS Awarenessโ€ session, equipping the youth with invaluable knowledge on prevention, protection, and responsible health practices amid propensities for risk-taking and peer pressure.

Marjorie Ayco, Migrant Desk Officer of Victorias City, and Salvacion Barrios, President of ONOFI, were both present in their commitment to supporting programs that strengthen the welfare of OFW families and their left-behind children.

Moreover, checks from various OWWA programs and services were also distributed at the end of the activity to recipients in Victorias City.

The advocacy program provided a safe and nurturing space for adolescents of OFWs to openly address their unique psychosocial challenges. Through this OCC activity, OFW children are armed with vital health information and emotional resilience tools necessary in positively navigating the complexities of adolescence despite the physical absence of their parental figures.

Solas, Family Welfare Officer (FWO) - Iloilo, Arlen Joy D. Gallego, Programs Clerk, and Joemel Pudadera, conducted an Orientation on OWWA Programs and Services, as well as a Financial Literacy Training, during a Pre-Migration Orientation Seminar (PMOS) with the Department of Migrant Workers Region VI at the 2nd Floor, New Legislative Building, Estancia, Iloilo.

The seminar focused on orienting participants about essential information precluding migration, discussing realities, challenges, and practical knowledge. Meanwhile, OWWA RWO VI personnel comprehensively discussed the various programs and services offered by OWWA, coupled with a financial literacy training crucial for soon-to-be Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). The activity aimed to equip the participants with crucial knowledge on their welfare benefits and money management skills, preparing them for a more secure and informed migration journey.

Therefore, the PMOS served as a vital foundational step, empowering attendees with the necessary information and tools to navigate their overseas employment responsibly and maximize the support systems available to them and their families.
