THE Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is finalizing the guidelines of the Ayuda para sa Kapos ang Kita Program (AKAP) in partnership with the Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE) and the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA).
DSWD Secretary Rexlon Gatchalian on Thursday said the three agencies are updating guidelines for implementation while ensuring that the program's goal — to address the major burden caused by rising inflation on the financial capacity of individuals earning less than the minimum wage — is met.
