LEAD WITH CARE: EQUIPPING STUDENT LEADERS FOR MENTAL HEALTH FIRST RESPONSE 💚
Mental health support begins with a caring heart, a listening ear, and the courage to reach out. 💚
The Guidance and Testing Office (GTO) of the University of Northwestern Mindanao (UNM) proudly presents the Mental Health First Aid Training on October 16, 2026, at the UNM Convention Hall, Tangub City.
This meaningful initiative aims to equip our student leaders and peer facilitators with essential knowledge and practical skills to recognize signs of emotional and psychological distress, provide compassionate initial support, and facilitate appropriate referrals when professional help is needed.
🌟 Meet Our Resource Speaker!
We are honored to welcome Ms. Generaole, District Guidance Counselor III, whose professional expertise and experience in guidance and counseling, mental health promotion, and student support services will help enrich our participants’ understanding of mental health first response.
Through her insights and guidance, our student leaders and peer facilitators will be empowered to respond with empathy, listen without judgment, recognize when someone needs help, and connect individuals to appropriate support services.
Through this initiative, we hope to nurture a community of student leaders who lead not only with confidence but also with compassion and genuine concern for the well-being of others. Because sometimes, a simple act of listening, a kind word, or a timely referral can make a meaningful difference in someone's life. 💚
Let us build a campus where asking for help is welcomed, offering support is encouraged, and no one has to face their struggles alone.
💚 LEAD WITH CARE. LISTEN WITH EMPATHY. RESPOND WITH COMPASSION.
