P1 B funding for Child Devt Centers in low-income LGUs approved
By Nidz Godino
“Through these CDCs, our children will have strong foundation that, in turn, will strengthen foundation of our nation,” President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said Department of Budget and Management (DBM) has approved release of P1 billion to fund establishment of Child Development Centers (CDCs) in low-income local government units (LGUs) nationwide.
Budget Secretary Amenah Pangandaman said release of funds for project aligns with President Marcos’ directive to invest in education and human capital development.
The President led ceremonial signing of Joint Circular on Establishment of CDCs held at Malacañang on April 3.
He also announced that 328 low-income LGUs will receive funding to implement early childhood care initiatives this year.
Of this number, 89 LGUs are in Luzon, 106 in the Visayas and 133 in Mindanao, including the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM).
Joint circular, signed between Department of Education (DepEd) and DBM, provides guidelines for LGUs to establish CDCs through Local Government Support Fund-Financial Assistance to LGUs.
“We believe that establishing CDCs across the country is crucial to every Filipino child’s overall well-being before they transition to school,” Pangandaman said.
To effectively address existing gaps in the country’s early childhood care system, CDCs will serve as resource hubs for early learning programs, family support services and research on child development.
“Through CDCs, our children will have support and structure that they need even before they enter our classrooms,” DepEd Secretary Sonny Angara, for his part, said.
Low-income LGU beneficiaries were identified and validated by DepEd based on findings of Second Congressional Commission on Education (EDCOM II) Year 2 Report.
