A 27-year old female inmate at the Bataan District Jail (BDJ) in Balanga City, Bataan helps support her family by working at the in-house bakery inside the facility.
Nina, not her real name, says “Napakalaking tulong nito sa akin dahil bukod sa libangan ay naging source of income ko na din ito, na isa sa sumusuporta upang ako ay magkaroon ng pagkukunan ng aking mga pangangailangan.”
Nina and 16 others are among those trained on production of bread and other pastry products under the “Bakery sa Jail” project of the Department of Science and Technology Regional Office No. III through its provincial office in Bataan where basic food safety training was also provided.
