This descriptive-correlational study was conducted to determine the attendance in Family Development Sessions (FDS) and levels of well-being of 4P’s beneficiaries in Silay City, Negros Occidental. The study was limited to Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4P’s) beneficiaries of the three (3) Barangays of Silay City, in the upland, midland and coastal area. The study covered their attendance in Family Development Session (FDS) and their levels of well-being. The midland area had 70 respondents; the coastal area had 127 respondents; and the upland area had 39 respondents. A total of 236 clients who were all under the supervision of the researcher’s department served as respondents of the study. The descriptive statistics such as frequency and percentage distribution and mean, wherever appropriate, were employed, to describe the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4P’s) beneficiaries in terms of their personal characteristics and household characteristics; their attendance in FDS; and level of well-being. Chi- square test was used to determine whether or not there are significant relationships between the personal characteristics, household characteristics and the attendance of 4P’s beneficiaries in FDS; to determine whether or not there is a significant relationship between the attendance in FDS and the level of well-being of 4P’s beneficiaries, and to determine whether or not there are significant relationships between the levels of well- being and the personal characteristics, household characteristics of 4P’s beneficiaries. Results of the study revealed that the 4Ps beneficiaries were residents of coastal areas, 36 to 50 years of age with a mean age of 41.51 years, high school level/graduate, housewives, with a family size of 6 and above, and a family income of PhP 3,000 and below with a mean income of PhP 3,225.92. The 4Ps beneficiaries generally incurred no absences in Family Development Sessions (FDS). The respondents in the study were in the survival level in terms of economic sufficiency but in the self-sufficient level in terms of social adequacy, thus, their overall level of well-being is on the subsistence level. The personal characteristics and household characteristics of the respondents were not significantly related to their attendance in FDS. The location and education of the respondents were significantly related to their level of well-being. Household characteristics such as family size and family income and personal characteristics such as age and occupation were not significantly related to level of well-being. Attendance in Family Development Sessions was not also significantly related to level of well-being.

The Volunteer Probation Aide (VPA) Program is a strategy by which the Parole and Probation Administration may be able to generate maximum citizen participation or community involvement. Citizens of good standing in the community may volunteer to assist the probation and parole officers in the supervision of a number of probationers, parolees and conditional pardonees in their respective communities. Since they reside in the same community as the client, they are able to usher the reformation and rehabilitation of the clients hands-on (Herradura, 2009). In short, the Volunteer Probation Aides assist the offenders towards rehabilitation while they are under supervision in their respective communities. In collaboration with the PPO, the VPA helps pave the way for the offender, victim and community to each heal from the harm resulting from the crime done. They can initiate a circle of support for clients and victims to prevent further crimes, thereby acting as participants in nation building. The outcomes of restorative justice interventions appear interesting in view of its major function of restoring the losses suffered by the victims of crimes, holding offenders accountable for the harm they have caused, and building peace within communities. It is within the purview of this shift in paradigm in addressing the effects of crime that this study was conducted. Statement of the Problem The present study was an attempt to determine and describe the outcomes of the restorative justice program in Iloilo Province Parole and Probation Office No.2. To carry out this objective, three outcome variables were considered. These were: (1) losses suffered by the victims of crimes; (2) offenders’ accountability for the harm caused; and (3) building peace within communities. Specifically, the study attempted to find answers to the following questions: 1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of such variables as age, gender, level of education, length of supervision period, client type, residence and present living arrangement? 2. What are the outcomes of restorative justice in restoring the losses suffered by the victims? 3. What are the outcomes of restorative justice in defining offenders’ accountability for the harm caused by the crime? 4. What are the outcomes of restorative justice in terms of building peace in the community? 5. Are there significant differences in the restoration of losses suffered by the victims when the respondents are classified according to age, gender, education, length of supervision and client type, residence and present living arrangement? 6. Are there significant differences in defining offenders’ accountability for the harm caused by the crime when the respondents are classified according to age, gender, education length of supervision and client type, residence and present living arrangement? 7. Are there significant differences in building peace in the community when respondents are classified according to age, gender, education, length of supervision and client type, residence and present living arrangement?

Yet, its names were established quite lately along with the rising popularity of the college as a leading agricultural institution in the region and the only state university of agriculture in Western Visayas. As people stream to the university, a multitude of activities in some projects began. Aside from increasing reliance on hired labor on some projects, students fielded the manpower requirements in the various phases of production as part of their skills training. There are projects that grow progressively. However, other projects didn't show as much as its counterpart. Sustainability of operation continue to be the biggest obstacle which render them ineffective to carry out their tasks. According to Relingo as cited by Valencia (1996), project-in-charge do not appreciate poor performance, but they tend to ignore it for one reason that project objectives were focused solely for academic purposes. Moreover, the Office of the Project-in-charge was also under constant pressure. Academic demands along with the equally demanding project chores have resulted to frequent shuffling of project-in-charge as well as project to take care of which certainly affected performance. More importantly, the conversion of the state college into a university, brought change since the overall organizational structure including the administration and implementation of income-generating projects (IGPs). Today, IGPs are under the Office of the Auxiliary Services headed by a Director. In this regard, it is deemed necessary to assess the results of operation of the projects particularly the olericulture project. This will offer insights on the university management which will serve as basis for making future plans and actions. Likewise, it will provide information for the project-in-charge and his workers to take necessary measures to strengthen their weaknesses which impeded performance and provide an environment that will enhance for substantial growth. Objectives of the Study This study was conducted to assess the costs and returns of the olericulture project as one of the IGPs of the university. Specifically, the study focused on the following objectives: 1. To find out the total annual sales generated by the project. 2. To determine the total annual expenses incurred. 3. To compute the annual net income, and 4. To look into the marketing channel which influenced the performance of the project.

This study determined the relationship among factors related to incidence of children in conflict with the law and the frequency of committing offense. Data obtained from the City Social Welfare and Development Office in Victorias City was used as the main source of all necessary information. The data was analyzed using Chi-Square test through the use of SPSS software version 17. The findings revealed that the CICL cases of the study were 14 years old and below, male, in-school and have attained at least Grade 6 and below. They came from families who live in urban community, with income of P4,001 to P 8,000, have 4 siblings and below, employed/self-employed fathers, under-employed/unemployed mothers, fathers with high school level and above educational attainment, with mothers who are elementary graduate and below, married parents with laissez-faire parenting style and with low level of closeness, concern and loyalty to family. They are generally one time offenders. No significant relationships between the CICL’s age, sex, educational attainment and frequency of committing offense were found. There were significant relationships between the CICL’s family background in terms of occupation of mother, educational attainment of parents (both father and mother), type of community and frequency of committing offense. But there were no significant relationships between CICL’s family income, occupation of father, marital status of parents, type of family relationship, parenting style, number of siblings and the frequency of committing offense.
