Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) is the national poverty alleviation and the human capital investment program of the Philippines which provides conditional cash to poor family-beneficiaries to strengthen the education, health, and nutrition of the family. Amidst the many existing interventions of the country, there still exist difficulty in the implementation of the intervention and support programs in the local government units.  This study assesses the intervention and support program to the 4Ps beneficiaries in the Municipality of Kalayaan, Laguna.  The research applies the Philippine Social Protection Framework and Strategy particularly the participatory strategies to determine the perceived implementation of participatory strategies of 4Ps beneficiaries and the extent of intervention and support programs to achieve the goal of self-sufficiency. A total of two-hundred fifty (250) 4Ps family-beneficiaries of the Municipality of Kalayaan whose tenure in the program is 10-13 years already served as the studys main respondents and were selected through purposive sampling method. Statistical treatments such as frequency count, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Kruskal Wallis H-test and Pearson-r were utilized. The analysis revealed that among the 11 areas of intervention and support program, only Family Awareness on Social Issue, Role Performance of Family Members, Health, Nutrition, and Water and Sanitation reveals a high extent of implementation. Further, the analysis also revealed a moderately high and statistically significant correlation between perceived implementation of participatory strategies and extent of intervention and support program, indicating that the higher the intervention and support program, the higher the perceived implementation of participatory strategies of the respondents is. Findings suggests that conducting a needs-based analysis is needed to craft the actual needs of the beneficiaries and create an institutionalized Sangguniang Bayan Resolution or Ordinance to provide and strengthen the intervention and support program to the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program beneficiaries in the Municipality of Kalayaan. These insights provide strategic guidance for optimizing intervention and support programs to ensure the attainment of self-sufficiency among all beneficiaries of the program.
