    [abstract] => This study assesses the Community-Based Drug Rehabilitation Program (CBDRP) for Persons Who Use Drugs (PWUDs) in Tanay, Rizal. The study aims to evaluate the level of implementation and effectiveness of the CBDRP across key components: Individual and Family Programs, Community Care Interventions, Health and Psycho-Education, and Psychosocial Support/Psycho-socio-spiritual Support. It also investigates any significant differences in perceptions between two groups—Municipal Anti-Drug Abuse Council (MADAC) members and PWUDs—regarding the program’s implementation and effectiveness. The study employed an explanatory sequential design using mixed methods. The respondents included 23 MADAC members and 132 PWUDs. The findings reveal that the CBDRP is highly implemented, with an overall weighted mean of 3.81, indicating strong execution across all program components. Individual and Family Programs received the highest ratings, emphasizing the importance of family involvement and counseling. The program was also perceived as highly effective, with an overall mean of 3.82, especially in areas related to family support and psychosocial interventions. Although both groups rated the program similarly, MADAC members tended to view its implementation and effectiveness as slightly higher than the PWUDs’ perceptions. Additionally, the study identified several challenges, including issues with participant cooperation, family acceptance, and self-reliance. These challenges hindered some participants' full engagement in the rehabilitation process. In conclusion, while the CBDRP in Tanay is largely successful, addressing the identified challenges and enhancing program components like after-care, participant engagement, and family support will further improve its long-term effectiveness. Based on the findings, recommendations for strengthening these aspects are proposed for future program development.
