The Senior High School Clinic, in collaboration with the Senior Plus Red Cross Youth (RCY), commemorated World AIDS Day through a HIV/AIDS Awareness Activity and a Mass gathering rooted in faith, education, and advocacy.
The program opened with remarks from the Director of the University Clinics, Mrs. Jocelyn A. Ferraren, RN, MN followed by an HIV/AIDS awareness session led by the School Nurse Mary Gill P. Navales, RN, LPT. A Values and Respect Activity then engaged the community through a posted Community Wall, encouraging messages of compassion, inclusion, and dignity. Ms. Florence Alzate delivered a reflection highlighting the importance of respect and empathy toward people living with HIV.
The observance concluded with a commemorative cake-cutting ceremony, led by Head Nurse Katherine T. Matunog, RN, MN symbolizing shared commitments to Love and Support, Respect and Dignity, Education and Awareness, Ending Stigma, and Hope and Healing.
With sincere appreciation to the RCY Club Moderators, Ms. Florence Alzate and Ms. Jennyve Cabantog, and all the student leaders (RCY Presidents, Officers and Members), this initiative reflects the schoolโs commitment to Atenean values of compassion, respect, and service through meaningful health advocacy.
