To further capacitate employees on sign language and address the communication gap with the deaf and hard of hearing clients, the Provincial Government of La Union, through the Human Resource Unit, tapped the La Union Association of the Deaf (LUAD) to facilitate a 2-day Filipino Sign Language Training on September 13-14, 2022. The said activity was in line with the celebration of Civil Service Month.

Facilitated by LUAD officers Jerome Marzan, Edronell Caluza, Rose Bel Peralta, and the interpreters, Yoly O. Locaberte and Brenda Padilla, the program aimed to equip participants with the basic competency for Filipino Sign Language (FSL) communication. In addition, capacitating them would be of great help in assisting PWDs that are transacting with the government.

Meanwhile, Mary Jane S. Balancio of PGLU HR highlights the inclusion of people with special needs. As of press time, PGLU has a total number of 7 PWD employees.

Through #LaUnionPROBINSYANihan, everyone in the province, especially the PWDs, feels they are included in Governor Rafy Ortega-Davidโ€™s #PusoAgenda. Hence, PGLU shall continue to strive to provide equal opportunities for all and, simultaneously, foster an inclusive and nurturing community for the Kaprobinsiaan.
