Barangay nutrition scholars are the backbone of nutrition. They serve as front liners for nutrition and nutrition-sensitive programs. BNS shall play a huge role in the upcoming implementation of Tutok Kainan Dietary Supplementation Program (TKDSP) in the region.

An orientation was conducted to barangay nutrition scholars of the barangays that were identified as the beneficiaries of the Tutok Kainan Dietary Supplementation Program. The orientation is crucial for the BNS to fully grasp the objective, management, and administration of the program and its components.

During the orientation, DMO II Parreno shared that NNC shall provide load allowance to the BNS during the six months of project implementation for ease in the electronic reporting system and monitoring.

The Local government unit of Glan Sarangani hopes to implement the Tutok Kainan Dietary supplementation program with all stakeholders’ support.
