Abstract
The study determined the Therapeutic Community (TC) clients’ satisfaction and assessment of the Therapeutic Community Modality Program rendered by the Parole and Probation Administration in the National Capital Region (NCR). The researchers-made survey questionnaire was administered to two (2) groups of respondents composed of 33 probation and parole personnel and 285 therapeutic community clients. The researchers-made survey questionnaire was validated by the four (4) experts in the field of therapeutic community modality program. The study revealed that the TC clients were satisfied on the Therapeutic Community Modality Program in all of the dimensions being assessed; however, there are indicators on clients’ satisfaction that obtained the lowest weighted mean that need to be addressed. On behav-ior management, there is a need for the TC implementers to reinforce community values and give emphasis on organizational structure. On the intellectual and spiritual aspects, educational activities and academic training must be intensified with focus on group activities that counter negative behavior to reinforce community values. On vocational and survival aspects, the TC program must incorporate vocational and livelihood training. The researchers conclude that the TC clients’ and TC personnel are satisfied to the Therapeutic Community Modality Program in terms of behavior management, intellectual and spiritual, vocational, and survival, and emotional and psychological aspects.
