Abstract : Using the descriptive-correlational research design, this study examined the barangay-based disaster preparedness programs and their correlation with local resilience and public safety in the Municipality of Mamburao, Occidental Mindoro. Respondents were barangay officials, BDRRMC members, and residents. A structured questionnaire was utilized to gather data. Results revealed that barangay-based disaster preparedness programs are generally effective, while local resilience is evident and public safety is maintained. Among the indicators, tracking systems and documentation were rated highest, whereas hazard identification and risk profiling received the lowest ratings. In terms of local resilience, environmental protection measures were considered most valuable, while maintaining livelihoods received less emphasis. For public safety, emergency response efficiency was rated highest, whereas knowledge and community participation were given less importance. However, the analysis indicated only a very weak relationship between disaster preparedness programs and both local resilience and public safety. The results suggest that although barangay disaster preparedness programs are effectively implemented, they do not significantly translate into improved outcomes in resilience and public safety. This implies that other contributing factors influence these outcomes. Therefore, barangays are encouraged to strengthen financial preparedness, enhance technological systems, promote community involvement, and develop comprehensive long-term recovery plans to improve resilience and ensure public safety.

Keywords : Barangay-Based Disaster Preparedness Programs, Local Resilience, Public Safety, Comprehensive Long-Term Recovery Plans, Coastal Communities.

Using the descriptive-correlational research design, this study examined the barangay-based disaster preparedness programs and their correlation with local resilience and public safety in the Municipality of Mamburao, Occidental Mindoro. Respondents were barangay officials, BDRRMC members, and residents. A structured questionnaire was utilized to gather data. Results revealed that barangay-based disaster preparedness programs are generally effective, while local resilience is evident and public safety is maintained. Among the indicators, tracking systems and documentation were rated highest, whereas hazard identification and risk profiling received the lowest ratings. In terms of local resilience, environmental protection measures were considered most valuable, while maintaining livelihoods received less emphasis. For public safety, emergency response efficiency was rated highest, whereas knowledge and community participation were given less importance. However, the analysis indicated only a very weak relationship between disaster preparedness programs and both local resilience and public safety. The results suggest that although barangay disaster preparedness programs are effectively implemented, they do not significantly translate into improved outcomes in resilience and public safety. This implies that other contributing factors influence these outcomes. Therefore, barangays are encouraged to strengthen financial preparedness, enhance technological systems, promote community involvement, and develop comprehensive long-term recovery plans to improve resilience and ensure public safety.

Keywords : Barangay-Based Disaster Preparedness Programs, Local Resilience, Public Safety, Comprehensive Long-Term Recovery Plans, Coastal Communities.
