The Supreme Student Government, through the approval of Resolution No. 006 s. 2022–2023 by the Office of the Principal, officially commences the Call for Volunteers for Damayan: A Student Psychosocial Support Group.
Damayan, a Filipino word meaning "to help each other", is a program of the SSG under Mental Health and the Makatao Core Value. It seeks to augment the current state of psychosocial support services in the school, destigmatize Guidance Counseling, and create a safe-space and student-centered environment for peer psychosocial support.
On 9th of January 2023, SSG President Carl John Bucala held a consultation meeting with our Guidance Counselor, Ma'am Vivien Montes, with regards to the proposed Damayan: A Student Psychosocial Support Group.
Key points discussed during the meeting were the objectives of the program, sourcing volunteers, capacity-building approaches, a referral system, strategies, and possible partnerships with outside organizations that will ensure the realization of the said program.
Ma'am Vivien expressed her support to the SSG and committed to provide technical assistance in screening and capacitating the student volunteers. We cannot be more thankful for the opportunity.
For the youth we advocate, for the youth we remain.
A flagship program of SJNHS Supreme Student Government, the SSG will provide free access to sanitary products such as napkins and liners, aiming to benefit a minimum of 300 students on a monthly basis.
