TALKING COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT WITH WOMEN'S ASSOCIATION MEMBER EDITHA ORIGEN

“I joined the San Miguel women’s association because I heard it can help with extra income projects which I especially needed for my kids’ schooling. Now I am also part of the alliance group. Other sectors, like farmers, women and youth, have come together to make formal plans as a group. The alliance is a united force to pursue our plans. At the moment, this is to help protect and help children in our area.”
