In terms of the local data, we strengthen our
advocacy through the establishment of
VAWC offices in the barangays.
We respect the client’s rights should he or
she chose not to disclose his or her case. The
barangay captain or officials are also worried
that they might carry the burden of
financially supporting the family of the VAWC
victim whose perpetrator is the family
provider.
We also do profiling and home visitation.
Sometimes they make separate session with
the husband for counselling. We also have
the advocacy programs with our population
office, involving men’s group. KATROPA, we
are capaciting them as partners of women in
development.
