WRITE YOUR STORY WITH US.

“Nakapag-simula ako ng panibagong

buhay.” Edwin was a 36 year-old ex-convict from Agusan who had no family to return to. He never saw his wife and two children again since being convicted. His criminal record kept possible employers from hiring him.

“Maraming katulad ko ang hindi nabibigyan ng pangalawang pagkakataon,” he shares. (Many ex-convicts like me are not given second chances.) With the help of DSWD, through the Sustainable Livelihood Program, Edwin was able to start anew. From the cash assistance he received, Edwin started a small woodcarving business. He thoughtfully and carefully crafts the works of art himself. Mindful of his past, Edwin also teaches convicts of the art of woodcarving in the hopes that they too, like him, may be granted a second chance in life. “Nakapag-simula ako ng panibagong buhay,” he repeatedly says, (I have been able to start a new life.)

Department of Social Welfare and Development Sustainable Livelihood Program

The Sustainable Livelihood Program is a community-based capacity building program that seeks to improve the socio-economic status of program participants. It is implemented through the Community-Driven Enterprise Development (CDED) approach, which equips the program participants to actively contribute to production and labor markets by making use of available resources and accessible markets. It aims to enable the participants to manage sustainable micro-enterprises or link them to locally available jobs that will enhance their access to basic social services and improve their standard of living. Participants engage either a Micro-enterprise Development track or an Employment Facilitation track. From their chosen track, the program helps broaden the resource base of participants through relevant trainings and workshops, and links them to financial institutions and other public and private institutions that will help expand their livelihood assets.
