With the theme “Past, Present, Potential: Bente na PHU Kami,” the summit gathered mental health advocates and champions committed to strengthening mental health services in the Philippines.
Psych Beyond advocates Mr. AJ Vincent A. Bactat, Christopher Orquiola, and Danna Amor Angeles, recognized as Mental Health Champions, formalized a collaborative partnership with NCMH through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
