Evaluation of the Intervention and Rehabilitation Program in Residential Facilities and Diversion Programs for Children in Conflict with the Law
Overview
In 2014, UNICEF commissioned an independent evaluation to assess how the center-based rehabilitation programs and diversion programs contribute to the overall objectives of juvenile justice and welfare administration in the Philippines. The purpose of this evaluation is to provide formative data that will help both UNICEF and the DSWD refocus, redevelop, or improve the center-based programs and services for CICL. The evaluation has the following specific objectives:
- to assess: (1) the center-based rehabilitation programs and services, such as DSWD-operated Regional Rehabilitation and Youth Centers (i.e. RRCYs), and local government-run Bahay Pag-asa facilities (BPAs), and (2) the existing community-based diversion programs at various levels, including those supported by UNICEF;
- to determine the capacity of local government social workers in assessing the ability of CICL to discern the commission of an offense;
- to identify and document good practices and extract general lessons learned in current approaches and service delivery mechanisms for the DSWD and UNICEF; and
- to propose concrete recommendations at both program and policy levels.
The primary users of the findings and conclusions of this evaluation will be the JJWC, the relevant units of the DSWD, the social welfare and development offices at the local government units (LGUs), implementing partner NGOs, and UNICEF. CICL-centered implementing partners from other national government agencies, such as the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), the Philippine National Police (PNP), the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Public Attorney’s Office (PAO), are also expected to use the evaluation findings.
