Good day!
My Sister, a single teenage mom of a 3-month old baby was included in the list of Beneficiaries for SAP in Barangay East-Lungsodaan, Garcia-Hernandez, Bohol.
Yesterday was the distribution.
However, the DSWD personnel and our Barangay Officials omitted my sister's name on the list, on the very day of the distribution because she is a minor.
She is 17 years old, and turning 18 on June 25 this year.
Please clarify about this alleged exemption.
My sister was not given her SAP Benefits.
Thank you and more power!
