Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (English: Bridging Program for the Filipino Family), also known as 4Ps and formerly Bangon Pamilyang Pilipino, is a conditional cash transfer program of the Philippine government under the Department of Social Welfare and Development.[1] It aims to eradicate extreme poverty in the Philippines by investing in health and education particularly in ages 0–18.[2] It is patterned on programs in other developing countries like Brazil (Bolsa Familia) and Mexico (Oportunidades).[3] The 4Ps program now operates in 17 regions, 79 provinces and 1,484 municipalities and 143 key cities covering 4,090,667 household beneficiaries as of June 25, 2014.
In April 2019, President Rodrigo Duterte signed a law institutionalizing the 4Ps cash transfer program.[4][5]
