COTABATO CITY – Previously CSWDO-managed Center for Handicapped renamed Center for Persons with Disability (CPWD) in a ceremony here, 24 January 2023, coinciding with the 5th BARMM Founding Anniversary week-long celebration.

Aside from the renaming, the ceremony includes unveiling of the CPWD logo and highlights the input on basic sign language instruction and sharing of success stories from former blind trainees.

The CPWD is now managed by the Ministry of Social Services and Development (MSSD).

MSSD also launched the Sagip Paningin para kay Lolo at Lola Program to address the visual health needs of indigent older persons in the Bangsamoro region by providing eyeglasses, ensuring they have access to clear and improved vision.

“We are happy to launch the Sagip Paningin Para kay Lolo at Lola and signed the Memorandum of Agreement with Glang Eye Care Clinic to help older persons with visual deficiencies through the provision of glasses with the assistance of medical professionals. Our goal is to expand this initiative to other provinces within BARMM, including the Center for PWD, to extend the reach of MSSD services,” said MSSD Minister Raissa H. Jajurie.

Graced the ceremony are Minister Jajurie, MSSD director general Mohammad Muktadir Estrella, and MSSD Older Persons and Persons with Disability Welfare Program (OPPWDWP) focal Sandra B. Macacua, RSW; and CPWD Center Head Bryan Abdullah, RSW, CSWDO OIC Ashraf Abubakar, and Dr. Zuhra Adam Glang of Glang Eye Care Clinic, and other key representatives from partner agencies.
