Power of Information at Olongapo City Jail
The City Public Library, headed by Beth Daduya, conducted a literacy project for city jail inmates at Olongapo City Jail last January 16, 2008.
City Mayor James ‘’Bong’’ Gordon, Jr. and Olongapo First Lady and Zambales Vice Governor Anne Marie Gordon together with Vice Mayor Cynthia Cajudo ang Brgy. Barretto Chairman Carlito Baloy supported the said project.
During the program, Mayor Gordon told the in mates, “Inatasan ko na ang Legal Department ng City Hall sa pamamagitan ni Atty. Angelito Orozco na tutukan, pag-aralang mabuti at madaliin ang inyong mga kaso. Upang sa gayon, ang mga kinakailangan nang lumabas sa City Jail na naaayon sa batas ay maaari nang muling makapiling ang kanilang pamilya”.
Themed “Power of Information at Olongapo City Jail”, the City Library provided the city jail inmates with knowledge and information about livelihood and education which may help them start anew after having served jail terms.
Information about livelihood were shared with the inmates through the help of the City Livelihood and Cooperative Development Office (LCDO). Aileen Sanchez, LCDO Head told the in mates, “Habang kayo ay nasa loob ng City Jail at gumagawa ng inyong produkto, ang City Government sa pamamagitan ng LCDO ang makikipag-ugnayan sa labas upang maibenta sa merkado ang inyong mga produkto”.
Gordon College President Dr. Arlida Pame also introduced the training courses they offer such as computer training, housekeeping, welding training and ladderized education. “Maaari kaming magdala ng mga computer units at instructors dito sa City Jail upang magbigay ng basic computer training”, Pame said.
“Patuloy ding nagbibigay ang Gordon College ng mga libreng pa-training. Makipag-ugnayan po lamang sa paaralan ang inyong ka-anak upang sa gayon ay maging bahagi ng mga magagandang programang pang-edukasyon”, she added.
Meanwhile, Dr. John James Larafoster also provided the inmates with a spiritual rehabilitation activity entitled “Spring of Hope”.
The inmates likewise prepared a 30-minute production number entitled “Olongapo Noon at Ngayon” to the delight of the crowd.
