Women’s empowerment can be defined as promoting women’s sense of self-worth, their ability to determine their own choices, and their right to influence social change for themselves and others. And we have that kind of woman in our institution; she, who was bruised by life’s hindrances, still had not lost her passion for flight and to succeed in life; she is Mrs. Cristeta C. Dacumos, the “Super Juana” of JZGMSAT. With her 35 years in the government service, there is no doubt why she was able to provide numerous amounts of opportunities for skills and livelihood training programs and to develop entrepreneurial skills needed for higher productivity among Persons with Disability, Senior Citizens, ALS, and every Juana from different communities and industry partners. Aligned with that, with her astuteness, she is also a Trainer and Assessor for Trainer’s Methodology Level 2. This passionate and unwavering Juana never stops pursuing things in life for her to inspire and encourage others to do the same things as well, or even beyond that. She is indeed a shepherd of TESDA's advocacy and vision.
