Abstract

INTRODUCTION

In Calendar year 2013-2014, Soccsksargen Crime rate (violent crimes) listed 21.6 % which includes murder (5.4%), homicide (15.8%), physical injuries (26%), rape (19.9%), robbery (25.7%), theft (4.3%), carnapping (8.6%$), cattle rustling (33.6%). It shows that they are still crimes present in the region (PNP-12, 2014). Considering the facts presented, the researchers feel the importance of conducting a thorough investigation and data gathering to determine the level of implementation of Barkada Kontra Droga (BKD) Programs in PNP XII basis for a multi sectoral approach.

METHODS

This study used descriptive-correlative design to evaluate the level of implementation of BKD programs in Region XII and become the basis of a proposed multi-sectoral approach for Department of Education, PNP, LGU, and Community. To determine the level of implementation and problems encountered, weighted mean and percentage was used. To determine the significant relationship between the level of implementation and problems encountered, Pearson "r" correlation was used. To determine the significant difference in the evaluation on the implementation of DARE program of the students, DARE police officers, Department of Education teacher, school administrator, parents and LGU representative, Anova was used.

RESULTS

Based on the data gathered the following are the findings of the study: The extent of the implementation of Barkada Kontra Droga (BKD) Program in Maltana National High School is extremely implemented with a grand mean of 4.50. There is no significant difference in the assessment of the respondents on the extent of implementation of BKD program, objectives and purpose. The problems encountered during the implementation of BKD Program in Maltana National High School are less serious since the grand weighted mean was 2.52. There is no significant relationship between the extent implementation of BKD Program towards BKD program, objectives and purpose and the problems encountered.
