    Teenage pregnancy, HIV and AIDS, and mental health problems are increasingly alarming among adolescents in the Philippines. Thus, Adolescent Heath Development Programs (AHDP) were initiated in the country along with this is the institution of teen centers for the personality enrichment and skills improvement among teens focused chiefly on sexuality and health. Aside from the criterion used for the MODEL ILOILO TEENiran by the Iloilo PPO, no other guidelines exist to evaluate a teen center in the Philippines. This study aimed to evaluate the functionality of the teen centers present in the first district of Iloilo. A descriptive study design was used with study locales at schools within the first district wherein the teen centers are located and is within the inclusion criteria. Evaluation was done by the researchers’ using pre-tested evaluation tool and through a survey given to randomly selected teens. Frequency and proportion, Principal Component Analysis, and Hierarchical Clustering Methods were used for statistical analysis. The Teen Centers had an overall rating of above average with a mean score of 4.10±0.31. Tills also reflects that the four different components of the teen centers are also above average. Three clusters based from the views of the respondents were identified namely Enthusiastic consisting of 50.5% of the respondents, Gregarious having 31.9% and Apathetic comprising 17.5% of the teens surveyed. From the respondents, 60.5% were satisfied while 39.5% were not satisfied. As a conclusion, the teen centers have been effective in implementing its goals and objectives based on the evaluation of the researchers’ and feedbacks of the teen clients. Despite these outstanding results, it is still recommended that the teen centers further improve their overall performance to fully reach the goals of a teen center and to give the teens the utmost experience and learnings of the programs.

    Arancillo, Ulah Lynn F.; Barcelona, Joser John T.; Cabalo, Jori May G.; Cansancio, Marienne Fay T.; Castillo, Marianne Hillary O.; Nufuar, Isa Adelie S.; Palanog, Riananess Q.; Pido, Theo Joseph D.; Repospolo, Melvie Dale P.

    The Zuellig Family Foundation (ZFF) and Department of Health initiated the Municipal Leadership and Governance Program (MLGP), a two-cycle program that aims to guide the Filipinos in achieving health equity and resilience through mentoring and training teams led by local health leaders to improve the six building blocks of health. It also aims to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals through ensuring that municipal health systems be responsive, equitable, and sustainable. This research aims to assess the municipality performance and health outcomes to measure the success of the MLGP intervention. Secondary data representing health outcomes from MLGP and non-MLGP municipalities and consolidated roadmaps were gathered and statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 23. Among the health indicators that were used to evaluate the program under Cycle 1, SBA and FIC showed a statistical significance while the remaining indicators, MMR, IMR, CPR, and FBD did not. All six health outcomes for Cycle 2 municipalities did not show any statistical significance from 2015-2018. Statistically significant improvements were observed on Health Human Resource on Modules 2 and 3, and all the modules in Leadership and Governance of the MLGP Cycle 2 while the other five building blocks did not show statistical significance. Changes in the health outcomes under MLGP Cycle 2 and non-MLGP municipalities showed that they have improved in terms SBA and FBD only. Although significant relationships were found between municipality performance and the health outcome indicators, it must be noted that there are confounding factors not accounted which may have interfered with the results and findings of this study.
