gram of the GAD Office, City Government of Tabaco.
d. Youth shall refer to those persons whose ages range from fifteen (15) to thirty (30)

for the youth, the age disaggregation shall be considered:

25 - 30 - adult youth
SECTION 4 – Rationale – In the interest of building the leadership capabilities of the youth and
promoting cooperation to solve teenage pregnancy, proliferation of HIV, and mental health disor-
ders, it is envisioned to institutionalize a youth development program by establishing a “special
youth task force” that would advocate and bring innovative solutions on the aforementioned is-
sues.
With this, the Tabaco City GAD Youth Ambassadors Program aims to select 20 young and com-
mitted GAD Youth advocates age 18 to 25, in view of molding them to become models and leaders
for their fellow youth. Selected GAD Youth Ambassadors shall have the opportunity to participate
in a 12-month program that shall advance their character and leadership skills.
These ambassadors shall be trained to champion the cause for GAD awareness and provide
assistance in the tracking and monitoring of teenage pregnancy rates. They shall also serve as
volunteers in developing programs and organizing awareness trainings/seminars to address such
issue; in particular, they will be the primary drivers in school- and community-based initiatives.

a. Select 20 GAD Youth Ambassadors who will advocate adolescent health to reduce
the rates of teenage pregnancy and empower young women;
