With these, the study aims to determine the difference in the proportion of cases and understand the reasons for victim disengagement through the use of a quantitative study specifically the triangulation method. Findings suggest that there is a significant difference in the proportion of cases handled by the police and prosecutors level which was computed using the z-test which implies that not all reported cases achieve a successful prosecution. The study also used a t-test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variance wherein the results show that there is no significant difference in the weighted mean of the respondents which denotes that similar reasons are encountered may it be on the police or prosecutors level. Concerning reasons for victim disengagement, the respondents encounters family intervention, reconciliation, childrelated reasons and lack of financial support that halters the processing of violence against women cases. To sum it up, the difference in the proportion of cases and the reasons for victim disengagement boils down to the high valuation of the family that often leads to overreliance on the mediation process resulting in repeated victimization and non pursuing of cases.

By implementing risk reduction strategies, communities can become less vulnerable to the effects of disasters. In the Philippines, RA 10121 created the Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Committee (BDRRMC), but still lacks resiliency. Triangulation method was utilized in the research to evaluate the BDRRMC's level of implementation and challenges using a reliability-and validity-tested questionnaire to the respondents from the high-risk barangays in Baguio City, Philippines. Based on the results of the weighted mean Section 12, RA 10121 is being implemented in the barangay level. Singlefactor ANOVA results showed that length of service and age are two key attributes that shows significant difference based on the p-value result. In terms of challenges encountered, despite help from the local government unit, it is constrained by inefficient mobilization and dispatch of rescue teams during disaster response which is basically rooted from lack of manpower and cooperation in disaster management. To summarize, there is a need for planning and effective budget allocation with enhanced community engagement to improve the implementation of the law's provisions and achieve its goal of developing safer and resilient communities.

In the Philippines, RA 10121 established Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Committee (BDRRMC), but its full potential has yet to be realized. The study is divided into two phases to determine the BDRRMC's capability in high-risk barangays in Baguio City, Philippines. The first quantitative phase-descriptive design uses a reliability-and-validity-tested questionnaire administered to 145 respondents that was chosen via total enumeration. According to a single-factor ANOVA, the BDRRMC has an overall weighted mean capability of 3.25, which means a very high capability in disaster management. Moreover, under the communication construct, the p-value for a length of service was 0.05, and the p-value for age was 0.03, indicating a statistically significant difference that suggests these variables affect DRRM capabilit y. Because of this, a qualitative phase-case study was followed up to explain the quantitative result.Further, splitting the 12 participants chosen through homogeneous sampling into two groups based on the low and high weighted mean. Using a theme-by-theme joint display to integrate the data, with themes from group 1 promoting encourage awareness, prioritization, and increased coordination, while themes from Group 2 include compliance issues , budget issues and constituent support. The findings result in expansion as fit of integration because of the identified challenges in local disaster management. Therefore, DRRM officers are competent, but a lack of funding and support from constituents limits their effectiveness during disaster operations, resulting in a reactive rather than proactive approach.

observed in the recent years yet there has been a low
rate of prosecution and conviction of perpetrators in
because of attrition and disengagement after filing the
case taking into consideration that the victim's
participation and cooperation are essential in the
administration of justice. With these, the study aims to
determine the difference in the proportion of cases and
understand the reasons for victim disengagement
through the use of a quantitative study specifically the
triangulation method. Findings suggest that there is a
significant difference in the proportion of cases handled
by the police and prosecutors level which was computed
using the z-test which implies that not all reported cases
achieve a successful prosecution. The study also used a
t-test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variance
wherein the results show that there is no significant
difference in the weighted mean of the respondents
which denotes that similar reasons are encountered may
it be on the police or prosecutors level. Concerning
reasons for victim disengagement, the respondents
encounters family intervention, reconciliation, childrelated reasons and lack of financial support that
halters the processing of violence against women cases.
To sum it up, the difference in the proportion of cases
and the reasons for victim disengagement boils down to
the high valuation of the family that often leads to overreliance on the mediation process resulting in repeated
victimization and non pursuing of cases.
