ArchiNEXT values young minds who think not just for one’s sake, but for the community as a whole.
Theme
The war on drugs is one of the major campaigns of the government today. In the 2015 report of the Dangerous Drugs Boards (DDB), around 1.8 million Filipinos from 10-69 years old are using drugs, or 1.8% of the total population.*
The effects of drugs do not only affect the individual, but also its family and the society as a whole. As a government intervention DDB passed Board Regulation No. 4, Series of 2016 that mandates “Local Government Units (LGUs) through their Anti-Drug Abuse Councils (ADACs) to facilitate the establishment of community-based treatment and rehabilitation services and interventions to surrenderers found to be of low-risk or having mild substance use Disorder. Based on statistics, this comprises at least 90% of drug users. “**
According to the Department of Health (DOH), “Community-Based Recovery Home for Drug Dependents” (CRHDD) is a health facility for patients with mild to moderate drug dependence who cannot stably cope in their habitual environment (own home and routine or regular contacts) and/or patients who cannot be fully managed in an outpatient setting.
It provides therapeutic structure and teaches recovery tools in a less intensive and rigid manner than rehabilitation centers, with a special focus on job skill training and job placement programs.
This Community-Based Recovery Home for Drug Dependents shall be called SIBOL. Sibol, which means, “to sprout, or a spring of water” encapsulates the transformation of the patient from his old to new self. Furthermore, just as the bud blooms with collective effort, SIBOL also reminds us that to propel the country towards greater heights, it is every Filipino’s responsibility to combat this deeply ingrained-social issue.
