DEFINITION OF TERMS
Advocacy - is a strategy which aims to influence decisions within political, economic, and
social systems and institutions of government at different levels or of any institution for that
matter. Done usually by a group of “advocates”, it includes many activities such as
conducting research, issuing press releases, organizing press conferences, media campaigns,
and public speaking, or lobbying with legislators or policy makers.
Capacity Building - is the process of equipping individuals or groups with the knowledge,
information, skills, and attitudes that enable them to perform specific tasks effectively and
efficiently towards the attainment of specific objectives or desired results. Much more than
training, capacity building can be done through coaching, mentoring, on the job training,
apprenticeship, field exposure, exchange visits, reading, on line studies, etc.
Caregiver - refers to a paid or unpaid person who provides care and protection to a child
and is expected to pay attention to the needs of the child in the house. Caregiver may be the
mother, father, older sibling, grandmother, nanny, housemaid, or any relative.
Under Republic Act 7610 or the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation
and Discrimination Act, child abuse is defined as “the maltreatment, whether habitual or
not, of the child which includes any of the following:
1. Psychological and physical abuse, neglect, cruelty, sexual abuse and emotional
maltreatment;
2. Any act by deeds or words which debases, degrades or demeans the intrinsic worth
and dignity of a child as a human being;
3. Unreasonable deprivation of his basic needs for survival, such as food and shelter; or
4. Failure to immediately give medical treatment to an injured child resulting in serious
impairment of his growth and development or in his permanent incapacity or death.
Children at Risk – refers to children who are vulnerable or at-risk to behave in a way that
can harm themselves or others, or vulnerable and at-risk of being pushed and exploited to
come into conflict with the law because of personal, family and social circumstances, such
as, but not limited to, the following:
a. abused by any person through sexual, physical, psychological, mental, economic
or any other means, and the parents or guardian refuse, are unwilling, or unable
to provide protection for the child
b. exploited sexually or economically;
c. abandoned or neglected, and after diligent search and inquiry, the
d. parents or guardians cannot be found;
e. come from a dysfunctional or broken family or are without a parent or guardian;
f. out of school;
g. a street child;
h. a member of a gang;
i. live in a community with a high level of criminality or drug abuse; and/or
j. live in situations of armed conflict.
Child in Conflict with the Law - refers to a child who is alleged as, accused of, or adjudged
as, having committed an offense under Philippine laws.
Child Protection - protection of children from abuse, exploitation and violence based mainly
on the special protection provisions of the Convention on the Rights of the Child particularly
Articles 19-23 and 32-40.
Child Participation - refers to children taking part in a process or playing a role in a process
at their level in accordance to their evolving capacities, children thinking for themselves,
children expressing their views effectively, and children acting in a positive way with other
people, among others. It also refers to involving children in decision-making on matters
which affect their lives, the lives of the community and the larger society in which they live.
Juvenile Justice and Welfare System - refers to a system of dealing with children in conflict
with the law which provides child-appropriate proceedings, including programs and services
for prevention, diversion, rehabilitation and reintegration to family and after care services to
ensure their normal growth and development.
Life Skills Education - is a method used for children and young people to promote personal
and social development, to build their capacity to make decisions in a day to day life, to
prevent health or social problems from occurring, and to protect themselves from possible
abuse, violence or injury.
Legislation - is law which has been passed and enacted by the congress. Laws in the
Philippines take effect after 15 days, following the completion of their publication either in
the Official Gazette or in a newspaper of general circulation in the Philippines. Local
legislations are city or municipal resolutions or ordinances adopted or enacted by the city of
municipal councils.
Local Development Plan - is a document that contains the deliberate, rational and
continuous effort of the local government unit, with active participation of the community,
to accelerate its process of development and growth by optimizing use of local resources. It
is directed towards making public services, public spaces, and infrastructures available to
the constituency.
Offense - refers to any act or omission punishable under special laws or the Revised Penal
Code, as amended.
Parenting - is the process of promoting and supporting the physical, emotional, social,
financial, and intellectual development of a child from infancy to adulthood. Also referred to
as child rearing, parenting refers to the aspects of raising a child, and all the responsibilities
and activities involved in it.
Reintegration - the process that promotes or facilitates the acceptance of the child back to the
community. It is the healing of the victim’s and the community’s wounds that were inflicted on
them by the offense.
In 2017, Juvenile Justice and Welfare Council (JJWC) developed the Comprehensive
National Juvenile Intervention Program (CNJIP) 2018-2022 as a concrete translation of the
provisions of Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act or RA 9344. The Law envisions a society
that promotes and protects the rights of children at risk and children in conflict with the
law under a restorative justice and welfare system. It is part of the government’s overall
commitment to build an enabling environment that respects, protects and fulfils the
rights of all children as enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC).
Establishing a Restorative Justice and Welfare System for children at risk and children in
conflict with the law resonates strategically well with Goal 16 of the Sustainable
Development Goals which commits United Nations (UN) member states to the promotion of
peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, to the provision of access to
justice for all, and to the building of effective, accountable institutions at all levels.
Republic Act 9344 as amended by Republic Act 10630 requires the Juvenile Justice and
Welfare Council to periodically develop a comprehensive 3 to 5-year national juvenile
intervention program with the participation of government agencies concerned, non-
government organizations (NGOs) and youth organizations 1. The same provision of the law
requires that a Comprehensive Local Juvenile Intervention Program (CLJIP) be instituted in
local government units (LGUs) from the barangay to the provincial level. At the barangay
level, the CLJIP is called Comprehensive Barangay Local Intervention Program (CBJIP). The
law provides that such comprehensive juvenile intervention programs at the LGU level shall
be implemented consistent with the national program formulated and designed by the
JJWC.2 In line with these provisions, the local governments are urged to develop their
respective Comprehensive Local Juvenile Intervention Program
The Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), as one of JJWC’s member
agencies, issued Memorandum Circular No. 2016-68 on Guidelines for Local Government
Units on the Development of the Comprehensive Local Juvenile Intervention Program. The
guideline shows the systematic and scientific procedures on developing a comprehensive
juvenile program (primary, secondary and tertiary) that is responsive to the needs of CAR
and CICL in their area/region and which fulfills their rights under the law.
The guideline has been crafted after the pilot implementation of the JJWC project
“Localization of the CNJIP” in seven (7) pilot LGUs. Moreover, to encourage LGUs to draft
their respective CLJIPs, the DILG is considering the inclusion of the CLJIP as one of the sub-
indicators of the Child-Friendly Local Governance Audit (CFLGA). The Council for the Welfare
of Children, likewise, included CLJIP as one of its requirements in qualifying for the
Presidential Award for Child-Friendly Municipalities and Cities.
However, there were feedbacks from the RJJWC Secretariats that the barangay level officials
have experienced difficulties in translating the Theory of Change and the Results-Based
Management Framework to the Comprehensive Intervention Plan for CAR and CICL. The
current guidelines on the development of CLJIP was found to be a bit too technical and
needed simplification for better appreciation of the duty bearers at the local level. This
Manual serves to contribute to addressing these gaps.
