    The Ilocos Sur Polytechnic State College (ISPSC) formally entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with Pascual Rivera Pimentel Memorial Academy (PRPMA) to implement a collaborative extension program focused on psycho-emotional support and mental health promotion.

    The partnership brings together ISPSC, through the Bachelor of Arts in Psychology Program, the BALLIGI Center, and the Guidance and Counseling Office of ISPSC–Tagudin Campus, and Pascual Rivera Pimentel Memorial Academy to provide psycho-education, counseling, consultation, and other mental health interventions for students, faculty, and staff.

    The Memorandum of Agreement was signed by ISPSC Mario P. Obrero and Mr. Arsenio H. Hezeta, Jr., Principal of Pascual Rivera Pimentel Memorial Academy, in the presence of officials from both institutions who served as witnesses to the partnership.

    Gracing the ceremonial signing as witnesses for ISPSC were Mr. Dennis T. Millare, Program Leader and Director of the Office of Student Affairs and Services (OSAS); Dr. Rogelio S. Quiroga, Jr., Chief of Student with Learning Needs; Ms. Raveena Galope, College Counselor; and Dr. Geraldine V. Reyes, Adviser of the BALLIGI Center.

    Joining them as witnesses for Pascual Rivera Pimentel Memorial Academy were Mr. Diomar Jake Viernes, SBO Adviser, Ms. Saniata D. Dela Cruz, Teacher Designate–Guidance, and Jakbean M. Ricarde, Discipline Committee Chairman. 

    As ISPSC continues to champion responsive and inclusive extension programs, this partnership marks another significant step toward cultivating mentally healthy and resilient learning communities through extending quality mental health services beyond campus. (Hannah Galutan, STRATCOM)
