The research was a qualitative study.
Data gathered was obtained and gained from the social workers in different municipalities in South Cavite. Narrative analysis design was used in this study and purposive sampling method was utilized in determining the total participant of the study.
There were seven (7) participants in this study.

They are all female social workers interviewed. The ages of the participants range from 32- 61 years old and the number of years in service range from 10-39 years.
The personal challenges encountered by the social workers are the problem in time of work and maximize the time of their family. Aside from managing the cases of domestic violence on children, social workers have other responsibilities like dealing with other sectors that cause them workloads. Some feels threaten and unsafe. And mostly, they feel stressed and burnout. On the other hand, the professional challenges they encountered were mostly institutionalization and referral.
The social workers also expressed their aspirations; they want to have a violent free environment and have a normal and better life. They want the child to have simple things that normal children can have.
