LPPKN deputy director-general (Management) Hairil Fadzly Md Akir, said RM20 million from the 2025 Budget has been allocated for the programme and other initiatives to strengthen family values.
"Since its introduction a year ago, we have developed the learning modules, conducted pilot programmes, and trained lead trainers.
