The 2014 report of the DILG on the Barangay Council for Protection of Children (BCPC) in General Santos City, BCPC - Barangay Apopong is one of the 15 barangays that is non-functional. It is a sad note, that in spite the measures and activities conducted by the BCPC Apopong, it was still evaluated as non-functioning.
Taking it as a challenge, the BCPC Apopong started to revive its council by reorganizing and through strengthening activities like the University of Mindanao sponsored Orientation on the Revised Implementing Rules & Regulation of RA 9344 as amended by RA 10630 last April 28, 2015 at the Sangguniang Panlungsod of General Santos City.
BCPC Orientation with Fiscal Blanza
Last August 14, 2015, selected BCPC Apopong members visited Barangay City Heights who is a Hall of Famer in terms of BCPC in General Santos City. The group was welcomed by the Barangay Council of City Heights headed by Punong Barangay Lourdes Casabuena.

The Action Officer of BCPC Heights, Chairperson on Social Services, Honorable Lourdes Gambalan together with some Street Educator Volunteers shared with the group the best practices that made them Hall of Famer. Barangay City Heights were generous enough that their programs can be replicated in Apopong.
BCPC Apopong learned that one of lacking aspects of the council is the documentation and proper reporting, which can be improved to make the BCPC truly functional.
