DSWD assures smooth transition for new administration

The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has prepared a transition handbook to ensure the smooth and continuous delivery of “maagap at mapagkalingang serbisyo” (prompt and caring service) under the new administration.
The handbook, which was crafted during a five-day intensive writeshop, provides a comprehensive overview, discussion on milestone accomplishments, and relevant information on the major functions and services of the DSWD.
It also contains the DSWD’s initiatives and programs that the outgoing administration, under the leadership of Secretary Rolando Joselito Bautista, wishes to be continued and sustained by the incoming Marcos administration.
Moreover, the transition handbook aims to serve as a guide for a well-coordinated change of leadership while the new management treads on the path toward having all Filipinos free from hunger and poverty, having equal access to opportunities, enabled by a fair, just, and peaceful society.
The DSWD expressed its commitment to ensure the continuous delivery of service to empower and improve the quality of life of the marginalized and vulnerable sectors.
