In his speech, Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto clarified that barangays recognized as “drug-cleared” are not necessarily “drug-free.” The mayor urged the affiliated government bodies to maintain the efficiency of the anti-drug abuse program, and continue to catch all individuals involved in manufacturing, selling, and possessing illegal drugs.
The nation is celebrating “Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Week” from Sunday, Nov. 13, to Saturday, Nov. 19, pursuant to Presidential Proclamation No. 124, dated November 26, 2001.‘Combat-ready’ vs illegal drugs RenewHealth is a five-year program from May 2019 to May 2024 that aims to “help PWUDs, people in recovery, and their families obtain access to informal care, self-help or community-based rehabilitation and recovery support to reduce or prevent drug dependence.”
Last October, Sotto and Vice Mayor Robert “Dodot” Jaworski Jr. met with United States Foreign Assistance Deputy Director Dr. Tracy Carson and USAID Deputy Mission Director Rebekah Eubanks as they inspected the CBDR programs in the city.
