Hamtic ACTS
Adolescent Male Health Program – Summer 2026

This summer, Hamtic ACTS organized and implemented a series of Adolescent Male Health Programs across Barangays in Hamtic, Antique, combining health education with safe, clinical circumcision services.

The initiative was designed to address two key gaps in adolescent male health: lack of accurate, age-appropriate information on puberty, hygiene, and reproductive health, and limited access to safe circumcision services at the community level. By integrating education with service delivery, the program aimed to normalize health-seeking behavior among young males and reduce stigma around male health issues.

The program ran over multiple weeks during the summer break to ensure maximum participation of school-aged boys. Each session included:
1. Health Education Module– Facilitated discussions on puberty, personal hygiene, wound care, and adolescent reproductive health, delivered in Kinaray-a and Filipino for better understanding.
2. Safe Circumcision Service– Provided by licensed medical personnel with pre-procedure screening, sterile technique, and post-procedure counseling. Parents/guardians were present for consent and aftercare instructions.
3. Follow-up and Aftercare Guidance– Recipients and guardians received written instructions and contact details for follow-up concerns.

A total of 420 males aged 10 years old and above were served across the municipality of Hamtic. Participants came from multiple barangays, ensuring wide geographic coverage and equitable access.

This series supports the Department of Health’s Adolescent Health and Development Program by bringing essential services closer to the community. Hamtic ACTS’ approach of pairing circumcision with education ensured that the intervention was not just clinical, but also preventive and educational.

The success of the program reflects strong coordination between Hamtic ACTS, barangay health workers, and local government units, and demonstrates the community’s readiness to support adolescent male health as a priority.
