Who 
are 
qualified
 for Pantawid Pamilya?
1. A 
household 
may 
qualify 
for
 Pantawid 
Pamilya 
as 
a 
beneficiary 
if 
it
 satisfies 
two
(2) 
criteria:
 
At 
the
 time
 of 
the 
assessment,
the 
household 
must
(1) 
be 
classified 
as 
poor,
 based 
on 
the 
National Household 
Targeting 
System 
for
 Poverty
 Reduction
 (NHTS‐PR)
 and
 (2)
 have
 a
 pregnant
 woman
 and/or
 children
 0‐14
 years
 old
 as
 household 
member(s).

Thus,
 being 
included 
in 
the 
NHTS‐PR
 list
 of 
poor 
households 
does 
not 
automatically 
qualify 
a 
household 
for
 Pantawid
Pamilya. 
In 
the 
same
 manner, 
not 
all 
households 
with 
a 
pregnant 
woman
 or
 young 
children 
as
 members 
will
 qualify 
for 
the 
program.
2. During 
community 
assemblies, 
LGU 
representatives 
help 
in
 validating 
the 
list 
of 
household
 beneficiaries.
