In our busy lives, it’s easy to get caught up in daily challenges and forget to care for our mental well-being. Stress Awareness Day reminds us to pause, reflect, and take small steps toward balance — whether it’s through rest, connection, or simply taking a deep breath.

Remember, your mental health matters as much as your physical health. Take time for yourself, support one another, and let’s build a community that values wellness and compassion.

Bringing Free Birth Registration to the Barangays

Residents can now access free and convenient birth registration services right in their communities.

This is government service that reaches where it matters most — another step toward an inclusive and well-documented Butuan City.

The City Civil Registry Department (CCRD) brings its Barangay Civil Registration System (BCRS) to:

Brgy. Mandamo - Nov. 6

Brgy. Dumalagan - Nov. 7

This is leadership that listens, serves, and delivers.

As weather conditions continue to improve, only 6 of our evacuation centers remain open with 1,884 families and 6,788 individuals as of yesterday.

These families have been well cared for, served with compassion, and provided with all their essential needs—from food and water to medical assistance and emotional support.

The City Government of Butuan, through its dedicated frontliners and partner agencies, remains on-site to ensure the comfort and safety of everyone in our evacuation centers until they can finally return home.

We would like to thank everyone who served including our partner agencies. Together, we continue to stand strong, united, and caring for one another.
