<br/><br/> I. ABSTRACT<br/><br/>Under RA 9344, Child at Risk refers to children vulnerable to and at risk of committing criminal<br/>offenses because of personal, family, and social circumstances. This study assessed the extent of<br/>the implementation of an intervention program among Children at Risk in Sungay East and<br/>Sungay West Tagaytay City. The study also intended to raise awareness among residents of<br/>Sungay East and Sungay West about the intervention program that they are implementing. Also,<br/>the researchers want to know what activities the Barangay provides to the Children at Risk who<br/>live in their locality. This study used a quantitative descriptive research design. This study<br/>utilized a self-made questionnaire that underwent validity and reliability testing. The sources<br/>came from the respondents, which has 18 children at risk in Sungay West and twelve (12) child<br/>at risk in Sungay East Tagaytay City. Frequency and percentage distribution were used in the<br/>treatment of data. The findings prove that the survey's interpretation of the extent of intervention<br/>program implementation among children at risk in Sungay East and Sungay West Tagaytay City<br/>was "Very High Extent." Furthermore, in Sungay West and Sungay East Tagaytay City, there is<br/>a significant correlation between demographic characteristics and the extent of implementing<br/>intervention programs among children at risk. This indicates that the Intervention Program was<br/>"Very High Extent" implemented. The result suggests several courses of action; first, because of<br/>the demographic character of those who participated, the researchers recommend that barangays<br/>enhance the implementation of their respective intervention programs; Researchers also<br/>recommend that each barangay implement a variety of techniques, such as conferences,<br/>seminars, and training, that raise awareness of the adverse effects of risky behavior, improve<br/>parent effectiveness, create handling or transformation skills in adolescents/youth, and explore<br/>venues which encourage residence-Collaboration between schools and communities to achieve<br/>the primary intervention's goal; also, researchers recommend that each barangay should<br/>implement preventative measures for children identified as being at risk of committing a crime.<br/>
