The Department of Social Welfare and Development is seeking an automatic adjustment of cash grants for the beneficiaries of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program , Assistant Secretary for Disaster Response Management Group Irene Dumlao said on Thursday.
Earlier this year, President Marcos directed the DSWD, NEDA and PSA to study the current cash assistance given to indigents and recipients of the 4Ps to make these more responsive to economic shocks. She also reiterated what DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian said that “adjusting the cash grants of 4Ps beneficiaries is not just timely but that it also preserves the value of the grants.”The 4Ps is a national poverty reduction strategy and human capital investment program of the Philippine government that currently caters to 4.4 million household beneficiaries nationwide.
