MANDAUE CITY, Cebu — Jocelyn Ugboc, 48, has not had any work for years. Ugboc, who is from Tagbilaran City in Bohol province, was focused on her role as a wife to her vlogger husband, Yul Macho, and as a mother to her only child, Alondra, who is now 23-years-old. But when she had the opportunity to learn dressmaking, Ugboc, a junior secretarial graduate, said that she did not hesitate to do it. She signed up for the program that the Tagbilaran City government offered at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 to give women, especially the mothers, an opportunity to help their families.
