SENATOR Win Gatchalian led the launch of a nationwide caravan that aims to promote mental health awareness among learners.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Nais nating ipaalala sa ating mga mag-aaral na kung may pinagdaraanan man sila sa kanilang mental health, hindi nila kailangang pasanin ito nang mag-isa. Maaari silang humingi ng tulong at may magagawa sila upang malagpasan ang mga hinaharap na pagsubok,” the senator said.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The mental health caravan, titled “Tara, Usap! G?” supports the implementation of the Basic Education Mental Health and Well-Being Promotion Act (Republic Act No. 12080), which Gatchalian authored and sponsored.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Tara, Usap! G” will roll out in partnership with the nonprofit organization Balik Kalipay Center for Psychosocial Response, PETA Lingap Sining, and Youth for Mental Health Coalition.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The mental health caravan utilizes a forum theatre approach and features a performance from the Philippine Educational Theatre Association (PETA) on the learners’ struggles with safety and mental health.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Mayroon na rin tayong batas upang itaguyod ang mental health. Ngunit makakamit lang natin ang layuning matulungan ang mga mag-aaral kung sama-sama tayong magtutulungan,” Gatchalian added.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Basic Education Mental Health and Well-Being Promotion Act seeks the development of a School-Based Mental Health Program. It also mandates the establishment of Care Centers in public schools.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SENATOR Win Gatchalian led the launch of a nationwide caravan that aims to promote mental health awareness among learners. “Nais nating ipaalala sa ating mga<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":15731,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15730"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15730"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15730\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15732,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15730\/revisions\/15732"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
