Community-based rehabilitation: a development programme in Negros Occidental.
This paper describes the establishment of a community-base rehabilitation (CBR) programme from its initiation to the current situation in the Philippine Republic. The impetus for the CBR project arose from an initiative of a non-government organization in the state of Negros Occidental. The administrative structure, manpower recruitment and training, and the close working relationship between government and non-government organizations are also described.
