SOME persons with disabilities have completed their social and vocational training at the National Vocational Training Center of the Department of Social Welfare and Development.

During the 70th commencement exercise of the NVRC on May 10, Assistant Secretary for International Affairs, and Attached and Supervised Agencies Elaine Fallarcuna said that the graduates embody spirit of resilience.

“This milestone is a testament to their perseverance in overcoming challenges and their unwavering commitment to personal and professional growth. Each graduate embodies the spirit of resilience, complementing that with hard work, determination, and support, any obstacle can be overcome,” she said.

“These graduates have not only embraced their unique talents and abilities but have also exemplified unwavering determination, resilience, and dedication throughout their vocational and rehabilitation journey,” Fallarcuna added.

The graduates underwent skills training on housekeeping and janitorial services, dressmaking, adaptive computer for the blind, massage therapy, beauty care and hairdressing, computer software, food service management, and social rehabilitation.

According to DSWD, NVRC is a learning environment for persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups that aims to help its enrolled trainees achieve the best possible adjustment to their disabilities and work toward social reintegration.
