programs that could empower them.

- To empower every PWD and Guardian of PWD in the community through programs and activities.
- To uplift the Well-being of every PWD and every guardian of PWD in the community.
- Promote awareness regarding PWDs in the Community.
- To integrate Persons with Disabilities into mainstream society
- To make a borderless and more inclusive society for PWDs
- To make Barangay Bambang, Pasig City a role model Barangay for PWD Programs
METHODOLOGY/ SOLUTION/ PROGRAM:
Empowerment Seminar could change the negative mindset of others towards PWDs and PWDs towards
themselves. In effect, they could be more open to other programs intended to empower them.
