The Province of Apayao is one of the six provinces of the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). It is located at the northwestern part of Luzon. It is bounded on the East and North by the Province of Cagayan, on the West by the Province of Ilocos Norte and Abra, on the South by the Province of Kalinga. (Figure 1 Regional Location)


==History of Apayao, Philippines==
==History of Apayao, Philippines==
:''Article below was copied verbatim from Wikipedia''
Despite being one of the first areas reached by the Spaniards in the Cordilleras, Apayao, inhabited by the Isneg tribe, remained mostly beyond Spanish control until the late 19th century. The Dominican friars established a mission in the present-day town of Pudtol as early as 1610. In 1684, they made unsuccessful attempts to convert the locals and built a church in what is now Kabugao. The remnants of these early churches in Pudtol and Kabugao still stand as silent reminders of the unsuccessful Spanish occupation of Apayao.


Although Apayao was among the earliest areas penetrated by the Spaniards in the Cordilleras, the region, inhabited by the Isneg tribe, remained largely outside Spanish control until late in the 19th century. As early as 1610, the Dominican friars established a mission in what is now the town of Pudtol. In 1684, the friars again made vain attempts to convert the people and established a church in what is now Kabugao. The ruins of the early churches in Pudtol and Kabugao still stand as mute testimony to the failed attempts to occupy Apayao.
In 1891, the Spanish authorities established the comandancias of Apayao and Cabugaoan, which covered the western and eastern parts of present-day Apayao. However, these comandancias did not exert complete control, and the Spanish government maintained only loose authority over the area.


The Spanish authorities were then able to establish the comandancias of Apayao and Cabugaoan in 1891, which covered the western and eastern portions of what is now Apayao. The comandancias, however, failed to bring total control and the Spanish government only maintained a loose hold over the area.
On August 13, 1908, the Americans created the Mountain Province through the enactment of Act No. 1876. Apayao, along with Amburayan, Benguet, Bontoc, Ifugao, Kalinga, and Lepanto, became sub-provinces of this newly formed province. Prior to this, Apayao had been part of the Cagayan province.


The Americans established the Mountain Province on August 13, 1908, with the enactment of Act No. 1876. Apayao, along with Amburayan, Benguet, Bontoc, Ifugao, Kalinga, and Lepanto, became sub-provinces of this new province. Before this, Apayao had been a part of Cagayan province.
During World War II, Japanese Imperial forces occupied Apayao starting in 1942, and the province remained under their control for three years. In 1945, Philippine Commonwealth Army troops, along with the military forces of the USAFIP-NL 11th and 66th Infantry Regiment supported by Cordilleran guerrillas, liberated Apayao from the Japanese occupation.


In 1942, Japanese Imperial forces entered Apayao, starting a three-year occupation of the province during the Second World War. Philippine Commonwealth Army troops and the military forces of the USAFIP-NL 11th and 66th Infantry Regiment, supported by the Cordilleran guerrillas, drove out the Japanese in 1945.
After almost six decades, on June 18, 1966, the vast Mountain Province was divided into four provinces under Republic Act No. 4695. The four provinces were Benguet, Bontoc (renamed Mountain Province), Kalinga-Apayao, and Ifugao. In 1972, Kalinga-Apayao, together with Ifugao, became part of the provinces comprising the Cagayan Valley region.


After almost 60 years, on June 18, 1966, the huge Mountain Province was split into four provinces with the enactment of Republic Act No. 4695. The four provinces were Benguet, Bontoc (renamed Mountain Province), Kalinga-Apayao and Ifugao. Kalinga-Apayao, along with Ifugao, became one of the provinces of the Cagayan Valley region in 1972.
On July 15, 1987, the Cordillera Administrative Region was established, and Kalinga-Apayao became one of its provinces. Finally, on February 14, 1995, with the enactment of Republic Act No. 7878, Kalinga-Apayao was divided into two separate provinces.


On July 15, 1987, the Cordillera Administrative Region was established and Kalinga-Apayao was made one of its provinces. Finally, on February 14, 1995, Kalinga-Apayao was split into two distinct provinces with the passage of Republic Act No. 7878.
The combined outlines of Apayao and Kalinga resemble a bust resembling the likeness of former President Ferdinand Marcos, known as the "Great Profile" during the Marcos Era, gazing towards his home province of Ilocos Norte, as described by the media.

A total of 81 shelter units have been constructed in Apayao, 51 units in Ifugao, 115 in Kalinga, and 507 shelter units in Mt. Province.
 
CSAP is a rehabilitation program which aims to provide structurally strong shelter units that can withstand 180-220 kph wind velocity to families whose houses were totally destroyed by natural and man-made calamities and who have no capacity to build or construct their own units.
 
The project aims to reduce the number of homeless families every year by providing a structurally strong indigenous shelter develop and promote the value of self-reliance among the beneficiaries and the community.
 
The core shelter unit is designed and constructed within a 60-80 square meter area with two bed rooms, a rest room, and a kitchen.
The core shelter is put up in cooperation with the local government units, community, concerned line agencies and the counterpart of the family beneficiaries.
 
The “bayanihan” system is also being practiced by the people in the community to fast truck the building of houses, Reynoso explained.
