The Barangay Nutrition Committee (BNC) meeting was successfully conducted at Barangay Tapon Norte, bringing together key officials and community leaders committed to improving local health and nutrition outcomes.
In attendance were Barangay Captain Edmar Renacia, Council on Health Joan Tubac, and the rest of the Barangay Council. The meeting was also joined by leaders of various community organizations, demonstrating a strong collaborative effort toward achieving better nutrition and health services for all.
Barangay Nutrition Scholar (BNS) Walfe Ulla presented the OPT (Operation Timbang) reports, highlighting current data and concerns, particularly the rising rate of malnutrition, including cases of stunting among children.
The BNC Council, together with the health staff, engaged in a productive discussion on strengthening and adopting policies focused on maternal and child care services. These initiatives aim to enhance service delivery, improve early intervention, and ensure sustainable strategies to combat malnutrition in the community.
We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who attended and generously shared their insights and recommendations in addressing these critical issues. Special thanks as well to our Municipal Mayor, Mel Nick S. Logronio, for his unwavering dedication and continued support in advancing health and nutrition programs in our municipality.
Together, through unity and commitment, we move closer to building a healthier and more resilient community.
