Serbisyong Lumalapit Sa Tao
The NASA BARANGAY program adheres to Mayor Nas Ona’s goal to bring local government services closer to Calacazens. The program delivers basic services based on his NASA GAWA flagship program which includes NASA Lakas, NASA Puso, NASA Sipag, NASA Ligtas, and NASA Barangay, among others, in fulfillment of the mission to make government services accessible to every Calacazen.
Employees from the key service departments and offices of the city government are brought to the barangays in a whole-day event that aims not only to reduce the turnaround time to avail of the services but also to provide a venue to interact directly with the LGU staff.
Health services such as free consultations, fluoride distribution, tooth extraction, and laboratory tests (Urinalysis, Fecalysis, CB, and ECG) are available during the conduct of the ‘barangayan’. Updating Member Data Records for Philhealth is also possible during the scheduled barangay day.
Services dedicated to promoting the welfare of Senior Citizens and Persons With Disabilities are also being offered. Registration for different sectors—solo parent, out-of-school youth, application for TESDA trainings, and Orange Card (hospitalization assistance)—are made accessible to Calacazens as well.
Additionally, the Office of the City Treasurer offers services such as payment for Community Tax Certificates, Property Tax, inspection fees, and laboratory fees.
Participants also enjoy receiving vegetable seeds as part of the One Barangay, One Product project while vaccination as well as medications for their animals, are also being provided. Discussions on agricultural income-generating activities such as poultry and farming are also conducted along with a session to explain the RSBA insurance offered to farmers and fishermen.
Through the Local Civil Registrar, requests for birth certificates, death certificates, CENOMAR, and other concerns involving civil documents (e.g., affidavit to use the surname of the father, admission of paternity, etc.) may also be requested and processed during the conduct of NASA BARANGAY.
Calacazens may also process their Police Clearance in the comfort of their barangays. The Calaca City Police Station also conducts an Information Education Campaign on Barangay Court and Barangay Tanod.
Aside from the services offered by the city government, the Public Information Office also brings fun and entertainment through trivia and games to help entertain the Calacazens while availing the various services.
