Abstract:
This study aims to evaluate community satisfaction with the imple-mentation of disciplinary hours for minors in selected barangays of Dasmariñas City, Cavite. It focuses on addressing issues involving minors in conflict with the law. The participants include police per-sonnel, barangay officials, and parents from Barangays Sta. Fe, San Nicolas I, and San Francisco 2. A quantitative-descriptive design was employed, using surveys to gather data on the participants' demo-graphic profiles and factors contributing to minors' involvement in criminal activities. Findings revealed that while curfew measures are seen as effective and well-implemented, their associated costs are perceived as insignificant. To address habitual offending, the re-searchers recommend an awareness or intervention program in-volving the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). This initiative would provide counseling and promote so-cial responsibility among minors, fostering active citizenship and unity to eliminate minor crimes in the area.
