CFLGA is an annual evaluation of LGUs’s effectiveness in implementing child-friendly programs and services that aim at promoting and improving children’s welfare. It assesses the cities’ and municipalities’ services that positively impact children.

The criteria for CFLGA covers governance and was based on four indicators and children’s core rights such as survival, development, protection, and participation.

Additionally, pursuant to DILG Memorandum Circular No. 2014-80, the findings of the audit are significant to the LGU’s pursuit of the Seal for Good Local Governance (SCFLG), which is given to cities and municipalities that meet all of the audit system’s criteria after an evaluation of their performance in implementing child-friendly programs.

The 2019 SCFLG Award for regional passers will be awarded this November during the National Children’s Month 2022. (Vjnhyl Pondivida)
