When Kiel, not his real name, was brought to Urdaneta Bahay Pag-asa (BPA), he had no idea what he wanted for his future. Today, Kiel is a 4th-year Bible school student who dreams of becoming a pastor and helping others who have faced struggles like his.
His story shows how rehabilitation and Urdaneta Bahay Pag-asa’s (BPA) Bridging Program give children in conflict with the law (CICL) opportunities through continued support through education, livelihood, financial aid, and employment opportunities as they reintegrate into the community.

Naguilian, La Union | October 13–15, 2026

The Regional Juvenile Justice and Welfare Committee (RJJWC) 1, in partnership with the Local Government of Naguilian, La Union, is conducting a Training on the Revised Integrated Care Management Protocol (ICMP) for Children at Risk (CAR) and Children in Conflict with the Law (CICL).

The three-day training brings together representatives from the Barangay Councils for the Protection of Children (BCPCs), the Philippine National Police (PNP), and Local Social Welfare and Development Office (LSWDO) to strengthen their knowledge and capacities in responding to cases involving CAR and CICL.

Through this initiative, participants are equipped with enhanced understanding of the appropriate procedures, roles, and responsibilities of duty-bearers in handling cases involving children, ensuring that interventions are child-sensitive, rights-based, coordinated, and responsive to each child's needs.

The activity underscores the importance of inter-agency collaboration in upholding the rights and welfare of CICL and CAR, and promoting their rehabilitation, reintegration, and protection in accordance with the principles of the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act.

Together, let us build a more responsive and compassionate juvenile justice system where every child is protected, guided, and given the opportunity for a better future. 💙

Pain becomes trauma when no one is there to help a child carry it. That's the truth behind Dr. Gabor Maté's words, and it's a truth that shapes how we should treat every child who has gone through hardship.

Every child deserves someone who listens, understands, and walks with them through the hard parts.

Behind every statistic on child marriage is a girl who had dreams put on hold. This October, the world marks International Day of the Girl Child with a clear message: invest in girls, end child marriage.

Girls deserve classrooms, not weddings they never asked for. They deserve safe homes, supportive communities, and futures shaped by their own choices.

Championing children's rights means standing against practices that steal childhoods.

Mental health support is essential for protecting young lives and helping them navigate tough times. Every child deserves a listening ear and a safe space when life feels overwhelming.

Protecting the life and dignity of every youth is a core priority for the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Council. Reach out, listen without judgment, and let someone know they matter. Your story isn’t over yet.

Peace starts in our homes and radiates through our communities. When we guide youth toward positive pathways instead of punishment, we build a safer, more peaceful society for everyone. Let’s make a conscious effort to build bridges and choose understanding every single day.
