The Commission on Population re-aligns its program to the whims and caprices
of the current president. The past President GMA focussed more on the natural FP
while Pnoy emphasizes on the promotion of responsible parenthood and FP.
Pnoy's thrust aims to provide info and services on all FP methods which
should be readily available, accessible, and appropriate.

Public health and responsible parenthood form a part of pnoy's commitment
to the Philippine society that would manifest good governance.
Popcom has had been implementing RP programs and went further to expand
its program covering FP methods (both natural and artificial) in 2011.

From Jan - Dec. 2011, here are some milestones that Popcom had accomplished:
*292,015 couples were oriented on RP-FP through the conduct of baranggay classes
in areas identified by DSWD's Pantawid Pamilya program, and this includes
the food-poor areas in the country.

* Baranggay Service Point Officers (BSPO's) , a brain-child of Popcom, took
active participation by way of contributing to the Universal Health Care program
of DOH Community Health Teams, working under the umbrella of the Aquino Health Agenda.

Below you will find Popcom accomplishments for year 2011. For easy viewing, this
is outlined and the explanation of the outline comes later.
