As to the recommendations, the Conditional Cash Transfer Program cash grant should be increased to cater the needs of the beneficiaries. The concerned agencies should formulate a timetable for the respondent’s activities where remittance of cash grants and paper requirements are indicated. Furthermore, the concerned agencies should conduct regular education seminars regarding the program to help them understand more and be acquainted with all the necessary papers needed in the accomplishment of the requirements. On the part of the beneficiaries, they should realize that the CCT Program is not perpetual. They should find stable sources of income while waiting for the eventual ending of the program.
