🌱👶🤱 Strong communities begin with healthy mothers, healthy children, and empowered families.

As malnutrition continues to challenge many communities, initiatives like this remind us that nutrition is everyone’s responsibility — mothers, fathers, families, health workers, and the entire community working together for healthier generations ahead.

The successful 3-day Maternal, Infant and Young Child Feeding (MIYCF) Training hosted by the Municipal Health Office of Liloan showcased the LGU’s strong commitment to nutrition and the fight against malnutrition through collaborative and holistic approaches.

Led by Dr. Simon Clyde Caputol together with Municipal Public Health Doctors, Dr. Czarina Marie V. Asentista, and Municipal Nutrition Action Officer, Dr. Marie Christine P. Quiseo-Tagalog, the activity strengthened the knowledge and skills of our dedicated BNSs and midwives in promoting proper maternal and infant nutrition, complementary feeding, breastfeeding support, and the vital role of fathers in child care and nutrition.

Special thanks to Vice Mayor Margo Frasco for sharing an inspiring message of support for nutrition and public health initiatives. Congratulations as well to the hardworking organizing team, especially Municipal Nutrition Program Coordinator (MNPC) Ms. Hazel O. Talon, RN, and BNS/BHW Focal Ms. Maria Jennie Canete, for making this meaningful activity a success. And to all the participants who made this training possible.

📊✨ MELLPI Pro Monitoring & Evaluation in Liloan, Cebu

Last March 31, 2026, the Cebu Provincial Nutrition Council conducted a Monitoring and Evaluation for the Local Level Plan Implementation (MELLPI Pro) in the Municipality of Liloan. The team visited three barangays (Poblacion, San Vicente, and Tayud) to assess the implementation of nutrition programs, validate reports, and observe best practices at the community level.

Following the barangay visits, the team proceeded to the municipal-level evaluation, where key findings and constructive feedback were shared.

The activity highlighted the strong collaboration of local stakeholders and their commitment to improving nutrition outcomes, with recommendations warmly received to further strengthen program implementation.

✅ REACTIVATED: City/Municipal Nutrition Program Coordinators (C/MNPC) in the Province of Cebu!

The Cebu Provincial C/MNPC Association has been formally reactivated through its first official gathering. The first quarter meeting departed from the conventional format, as it prioritized the election of new set of officers who will lead and guide the association in advancing nutrition programs across the province.

This milestone marks a renewed commitment to coordinated, efficient, and strengthened nutrition program implementation at the local level.

The reactivation of the Cebu Provincial City/Municipal Nutrition Program Coordinators (C/MNPC) is a significant step toward strengthening local nutrition governance. At the LGU level, having a designated MNPC is essential, as Public Health Nurses (PHNs) already manage multiple health programs. Appointing an MNPC ensures focused monitoring, supervision, and implementation of nutrition-specific interventions, as mandated by national policies. This aligns with the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Republic Act No. 10862, which emphasizes the professionalization and proper deployment of nutrition and dietetics practitioners in delivering quality nutrition services.
