LOOK: The Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office (PSWDO), headed by Ms. Sonia Bautista, brought together community-based organizations (CBOs) today for a productive coordination meeting at the PSWDO Conference Room, Provincial Capitol Compound, Alunan Avenue, Koronadal City. Representatives from the Supplementary Feeding Program (SFP) and the Enhanced Partnership Against Hunger and Poverty (EPAHP) joined CBOs to review program progress and map out solutions moving forward.

For EPAHP, the meeting was a welcome affirmation that strong coordination, timely documentation, swift problem-solving, and dedicated CBOs are exactly what turn a program on paper into food on the table.

Ms. Bautista's initiative to bring everyone together reflects the strong alignment and shared commitment of PSWDO, SFP, EPAHP, and partner CBOs in advancing the feeding program. It was more than just a meeting — it was a clear demonstration of what's possible when government and community partners work hand in hand, bringing South Cotabato's children and families ever closer to reliable, on-time supplementary feeding.
