The Community Support Program of the AFP plays a vital role in linking the LGUs and LGAs to the people. This allows the government to effectively address the primary concerns in a local community, including the need for basic services. As a result, the people becomes more aware of the government assistance, which later encourage Violent Extremists to surrender.
