Reformation Center open for youth camps
THE
Pangasinan Reformation Center (PRC) in Barangay San Vicente, Burgos is not used
solely for drug rehabilitation of drug surrenders but for youth camps as well.
This was clarified by Carlo Resurrecion, head of the Provincial Anti-Drug Abuse
Council (PADAC) secretariat.
He said Governor Amado Espino III wanted it made know that the PRC is also open
for any town and city that wants to organize and host youth camps.
Meanwhile, the PRC, under Dr. Nieves Guiang, has been organizing a four-day
Integrated Reformation Program (IRP) for drug users/peddlers who surrendered to
help them return to the society after their bout with illegal drugs.
Resurrecion said the IRP was already availed of by 130 drug personalities
from Dasol, Mabini, Burgos, Binmaley and Lingayen who surrendered. “It will continue
to accommodate drug personalities who surrendered to their town police,” he
added.
IRP consists of lectures on moral recovery and livelihood training.
He said the PRC also accommodated team-building exercises for out-of-school youths by
the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office. (Leonardo
