CPD Seminar: May 30, 2025
With Dr. Aileen Nepomuceno
In a series of talks, role playing activities and testimonies, the seminar discussed sensitive but real issues of the youth, from the influence of media on the youth, mental and emotional health of adolescents, suicide prevention and crisis response. The seminar was held to equip faculty and staff with the knowledge and skills needed to recognize warning signs, respond effectively, and support students in distress. These trainings enhance personnel’s understanding of mental health issues, reduce stigma, and provide practical tools for early intervention and referral. By fostering a safe and supportive environment, both teachers and staff become better prepared to guide students through emotional challenges and help prevent crises before they escalate.
