The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) envisions that all local social welfare and development offices will be fully functional by 2030. In 2016, the Mauban MSWDO has achieved a Fully Functional Gold Level rating on the assessment conducted by DSWD. It is through their innovative Mauban CARES (Committed, Aware, Responsible, Empowering and Service) program – which represents the social work values they promote; that they have achieved this accolade. The Mauban MSWDO has implemented a strategy that focuses on the welfare of their staff, the mobilization of community volunteers and ensuring the sustainability of the programs they implement to achieve their Gold Level rating.
