A Study on Health and Nutritional Education for Selected Parents of Barangay Linga, Pila, Laguna towards a Proposed Sustainable Project/Plan

Author(s) Dr. Gloria Nacora Ramos, Ms. Josephine Abrenica Villamin
Country Philippines
Abstract In many Filipino communities, parents play a crucial role in shaping their children's health and nutrition but often, they do so without access to the right information, resources, or support. This study explores the level of health and nutritional knowledge, attitudes, skills, and actual practices (KASA) among selected parents in Barangay Linga, Pila, Laguna. Using a descriptive-evaluative approach, the research gathered insights from thirteen parent respondents through structured surveys and community engagement. Findings revealed that while most parents understood the importance of good nutrition, there were noticeable gaps between what they knew and what they practiced mainly due to financial constraints, limited skills in meal planning, and lack of access to fresh, affordable food. Despite these challenges, parents showed a strong willingness to learn and improve for the sake of their families. There were some challenges during the planning, inadequate stakeholder participation, insufficient funding and resource planning. In the implementation phase, there was low attendance and participation due to household obligations or lack of transportation. In terms of monitoring and evaluation phase, there was inconsistent feedback or tracking forms due to limited understanding or interest. Based on the results, a sustainable community-based project is proposed, including nutrition education sessions, practical cooking demos, and a barangay garden initiative. This study highlights the importance of grassroots health education and the power of equipping families with the tools to build healthier futures together.
