community by providing basic services.
Social Welfare Services: Livelihood programs, assistance for the elderly, housing
projects.
o Emphasis on Relevance: For each category, explain how these services impact the
everyday lives of community members.
o Case Study Presentation: Provide students with a scenario where an LGU must respond
to a situation (e.g., a typhoon has hit the community, or a health crisis has emerged).
o Group Task: Each group discusses and prepares a plan on how the LGU can respond
based on the services they provide.
o Presentation: Groups present their plans and discuss how these services are vital to
community recovery and support.
