was installed in the health office to provide immediate assistance to PWDs. The office was also renovated to ensure accessibility for clients in wheelchairs. In the last four years, they have been organizing free HIV testing activities where PWDs were invited, and a “Family Planning Day'' where women with disabilities could get information on RH. ● The J.R. Borja Hospital, in partnership with the CSWDO and CHO in Region X, launched an information and education campaign on the reproductive healthcare of women with disabilities. They were provided with separate and special sessions in the weekly counseling on SRHR, which included discussions on sexual dysfunction. ● The PDAO of Cagayan De Oro City in Region X, has engaged the services of sign language interpreters as local government contractuals assigned to the PDAO. The sign language interpreters provide accessibility for deaf clients including response in cases of GBV and health emergencies and in ensuring accessibility for deaf participants in trainings. ● The PDAO of Dinagat Islands in Caraga was able to provide comprehensive assistance to a deaf woman who was raped and impregnated by the rapist. She was able to file a case against the perpetrator, obtain a scholarship and a subsidy for the child, with the aid of PDAO. ● The City Council of Baguio passed an ordinance supporting the conduct of extensive medical services for women with disabilities, with corresponding funding (Ordinance No. 69, s. 2018). It was also able to pass an ordinance that mandates all barangays in the City to establish and maintain a PWD Desk and to create a PWD committee to facilitate the data collection at the barangay level (Ordinance No, 47 s 2017). Another ordinance of the City declared a “Women with Disabilities Day” every July. Moreover, the City Health Office has been conducting trainings on disability-sensitivity and sign language. Through the leadership of Arthur Allad-iw, a person with disability councilor, the City of Baguio is among the most person with disability and specifically, women with disability responsive LGU in the country. Even then, these policy and programmatic gains have been challenged as well by limited funding for proposed activities and programs. ● At the national level, the BJMP has policies to ensure the welfare of PWDs, such as “cells with provisions suited for their disabilities,” and protection “from discrimination and exclusion because of their disabilities.” They also have policies that take into consideration the reproductive health rights of inmates, such as “medical services for illnesses related to their reproductive system” and “health education on gender-related health conditions.” Implementation of these policies and programs, however, would still be subject to further monitoring in the different BJMP facilities. 24
