ABSTRACT
The study aimed to determine the level of awareness of the mothers in Purok 1, Bancasi, Butuan City on Tetanus Toxoid Immunization for Women Program. A descriptive type of research was utilized in the study using a survey questionnaire as a primary tool in collecting the data. The researchers involved 45 mothers who were presently residing at Purok 1 Bancasi, Butuan City. A random sampling was used in the determination of the respondents. The data were collected, tabulated and analyzed using the weighted mean as statistical too. Findings showed that the mothers strongly agree that they are aware of the tetanus toxoid immunization for women program. The researchers recommend that the mothers should comply with the program since they are already aware of it.
