SSF For Processed Food (Soya Products)
“PDOCCI” is an acronym for Person with Disability Organization in Carmona Cavite Inc., a federation consisting of 14 barangays formed in 2012 that has agreed on one common project which is the Tofu and Soya production. DTI SSF program provided a grant of necessary cooking and Tofu making equipments to help the organization achieve their objective.
This organization was established to ensure that marginalized persons are provided with auxiliary services like employment that will restore their social functioning and participation in community affairs thus the common project which is the Tofu and Soya production.
This organization would not have been created and established without the help of CBR-Community Based Rehabilitation coordinators as well as the focal person of PDAO in Carmona. It all started when the LGU through the CBR gathered data of PWD’s residing in Carmona. This was done to have an inventory as to the number of PWD’s who live in the 14 barangays of the municipality. Each municipality elected their set of officers who will directly communicate with the LGU and raise concern on their behalf. The move was fully supported by their Chief Executive-Mayor Dahlia Loyola. Governed by Republic Act 7277, an Act Providing for Rehabilitation, Self-Development and Self-Reliance of Person with Disability and their Integration into the Mainstream of Society and for other purposes of Magna Carta for Disabled Persons, the state should ensure that marginalized persons are provided with the necessary auxiliary services like employment that will restore their social functioning and participation in community.
