Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health & Rights for the Filipino Families
Since 2015, GM Bicol has continued to muster its strength to advance SRHR advocacy in the region.
​
2023 ended with GM Bicol being able to provide counseling & SRH education, and HIV community-based screening to over 2,000 individuals. Close to 5,000 individuals received messages on SRHR - HIV, HIV services, STIs, and SOGIE, through educational discussions, one-on-one counseling, online platforms, media engagements, forums, and partners-led activities in which GM Bicol has participated as co-organizer or resource person.
​
GM Community Center is located in Daraga, Albay. We continue to serve as a halfway house for clients who need a temporary place to stay while visiting a health professional for their health needs in Albay.
​
We have 47 member volunteers trained and DOH-certified CBS motivators and peer educators.
Every number has a face, and every face has its individual stories.
