Abstract
High levels of population has long been one of the major problems of the Philippines; as part of the efforts to address this problem the government has implemented the Responsible Parenthood Movement Class (RPM) Program. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of the awareness targeting mechanisms of the said program. In order to obtain the desired results for this study, logistic regression was use. From the results of the regression, the study concludes that the efforts to make the intended groups aware of this program still leave much to be desired. The results show that the means by which awareness of the program is being spread has not been as effective in reaching those that would benefit the most from the program, namely the poor and uneducated.
