“Deserve nila (Child in Conflict with the Law (CICL)) iyong tinatawag nating second chance na makapagbago. Sabihin man nila na nakagawa iyan ng masama, tao pa rin iyan, may tendency na magbago – na maitama iyong pagkakamali niya. Huwag nating i-judge na wala na silang pagbabago, na wala nang mangyayari sa buhay nila. Huwag nating tutuldukan iyong kwento ng buhay nila kasi tulad ko, natuto ako sa mga nangyari sa buhay ko,” iyan ang salaysay ni Social Welfare Officer I Daniel Patoc na isa nang Angels in Red Vest ng DSWD Field Office 1 - Ilocos Region (DSWD FO 1).

Halos pitong taon siyang namalagi sa DSWD FO 1 Regional Rehabilitation Center for Youth (RRCY) dahil sa isang pagkakasala noong siya ay 17 taong gulang.

Ayon kay Daniel, hindi naging madali ang kanyang pagbabago. Noong tuluyan na niyang natanggap sa sarili ang nagawang pagkakamali, sinimulan niyang pagbutihin ang kanyang mga gawi at isuko sa Panginoon ang kanyang sarili.

​On 22 June 2026, the RJJWC 1 hosted TUNGTUNGAN 3.0, a Virtual Dialogue among the Pillars of Juvenile Justice. During the event, sector representatives exchanged thoughts, experiences, and ideas on the current implementation of the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act (JJWA).

​To strengthen coordination, collaboration, and convergence among the various pillars, the Body identified priority action points and proposed measures to address existing gaps and challenges.

​The outcomes of TUNGTUNGAN 3.0 will serve as the basis for RJJWC 1 in developing appropriate measures to strengthen the implementation of the law in Region 1.

Wave your flags high as we honor the courage of our ancestors who fought bravely for the freedom we enjoy today. This Independence Day is a beautiful reminder that our liberty is a gift meant to be protected and passed down to the next generation.

For us at the Regional Juvenile Justice and Welfare Committee 1, this freedom includes ensuring that every child is given a fair chance to reform and succeed. Together, let us cultivate a nation where no youth is left behind in our journey toward genuine progress.

Distance can never diminish the love and sacrifices of our modern-day heroes who work tirelessly overseas to provide a better life for their families. The Juvenile Justice and Welfare Council joins the nation in honoring our brave migrant workers, whose dedication keeps countless Filipino homes alive with hope. As you look after your families from afar, please know that we are also here on the ground, working hard to protect and defend the rights of the children you hold dear. Thank you for your resilience and your unwavering commitment to your loved ones.

This June, the Philippines marks Judiciary Month, celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Supreme Court.

Declared under Presidential Proclamation No. 1265, s. 2026, the observance calls on government agencies, local government units, the private sector, and civil society to support and partake in the commemoration.

Established on June 11, 1901 through Act No. 136 of the Philippine Commission, the Supreme Court has stood as a pillar of justice—first led by Chief Justice Cayetano Arellano.

In line with this milestone year, the Court unveils a series of activities under the theme: “SC: 125 Years of Tradition and Innovation.”

Stay tuned for updates through the official social media channels of the Supreme Court.

What does a healthy future look like for our youth? It starts with the air they breathe and the healthy habits they build today. National No-Smoking Month reminds us that protecting children from substance use is a shared responsibility that shapes their tomorrow.

At the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Council, we believe that every child deserves a supportive environment free from harmful vices. By steering them away from smoking, we are not just protecting their health but also guiding them toward a safer and more meaningful path in life.
