Madam:

Greetings!

In support to the intensified campaign against dangerous drugs of the national

government and whereas, it is the policy of the State to provide effective mechanisms or
measures to re-integrate into society, individuals who have fallen victim to drug abuse
or dangerous drug dependence, through sustainable programs of treatment and
rehabilitation, the Municipality of Pinaasa launched its Community-based Drug
Rehabilitation Program (CBRP) dubbed as AMBISYON.AHON.GANAP
(AMBAG) Program designed to INSPIRE, MOTIVATE, RESTORE and RECONNECT
the person to one’s healthy relationships with GOD, SELF, FAMILY and COMMUNITY
through holistic approach and interventions. Initially, there are 30
participants/recipients (drug surrenderers) from 4 pilot barangays of Pinaasa who are
actively participating the program, all male with age ranging from 20 to 49 years old,
majority are non-High School Graduates and merely relies on fishing and/or
construction works and are identified to have income below the poverty threshold.

One of the subject interventions of the AMBAG Program is the provision of

livelihood to help suffice the needs of the recipients especially their families and as well
as to help them refrain and not to resort to the use and proliferation of dangerous drugs.
 In view of this we would like to request from your office to avail the programs and
services of the DSWD through cash or food for work and as well as chance for our
respective clientele to enroll to the livelihood program of your agency.

Thank you very much and hoping for your most favorable response.

Truly yours,

JUSTIN D. REYES
