AVES CSOI Executive Director Facilitates “SAFE TO BE” Psychological Safety Talk for DepEd Educators in Las Piñas.

The AVES Civil Society Organization Inc. (AVES CSOI) continued its commitment to promoting mental well-being, safe learning environments, and supportive school communities as AVES CSOI Executive Director Mr. Joseph Cua was invited as a Resource Speaker for a session/seminar on Psychological Safety for Learners, Educators, and Non-Teaching Staff/Employees last September 11, 2026, at the Covered Court of Las Piñas National High School – Main, Las Piñas City.

The session, entitled “SAFE TO BE: Building Psychological Safety in School,” carried the powerful message:

Safe to Speak · Safe to Learn · Safe to Ask for Help · Safe to Be Human

The activity was attended by DepEd teachers, school principals, and staff and officers from the Guidance and Counseling Office, providing participants with an opportunity to deepen their understanding of psychological safety and its importance in creating healthier, more inclusive, and supportive school communities.

🧠 Understanding Psychological Safety in Schools

During the session, Mr. Joseph Cua discussed the importance of creating an environment where learners, teachers, and non-teaching personnel feel safe to express their thoughts, ask questions, acknowledge mistakes, seek assistance, and communicate their concerns without fear of humiliation, judgment, or retaliation.

The discussion emphasized that psychological safety is not simply about avoiding conflict or discomfort. Rather, it is about creating a school culture where individuals feel respected, heard, valued, and supported.

For learners, psychological safety can help create an environment where they feel confident to participate, learn from mistakes, ask for help, and develop their full potential.

For educators, non-teaching personnel, and guidance personnel, psychological safety can contribute to a workplace where they can share ideas, raise concerns, collaborate, seek support, and contribute meaningfully to school improvement and student well-being.

🏫 Building a SAFE TO BE School Culture

The SAFE TO BE framework highlights four important principles:

🗣️ Safe to Speak – Creating spaces where everyone can express ideas, concerns, questions, and experiences respectfully.

📚 Safe to Learn – Recognizing that mistakes are part of learning and that learners need encouragement to participate, explore, and grow.

🤝 Safe to Ask for Help – Removing fear and stigma associated with seeking assistance, guidance, or support.

❤️ Safe to Be Human – Promoting compassion, empathy, understanding, and respect for the experiences and limitations of every member of the school community.

The participation of the Guidance and Counseling Office staff and officers added an important perspective to the discussion, given their role in supporting learners and helping address concerns related to their emotional and psychosocial well-being.

💬 An Honor to Listen, Learn, and Address Concerns

For Mr. Joseph Cua, it was an honor and privilege to handle the topic of psychological safety and engage directly with educators, school leaders, and guidance personnel who openly shared their experiences and perspectives.

The session became more meaningful as participants shared their experiences, trigger points, challenges, and best practices in dealing with situations that may affect psychological safety within the school environment.

These exchanges created a safe and meaningful space for reflection, dialogue, and shared learning. Participants were given the opportunity not only to listen but also to learn from one another's experiences and explore practical ways to respond to concerns with greater empathy, understanding, and compassion.

The open discussion also highlighted that psychological safety is a shared responsibility. Teachers, school leaders, guidance personnel, and other members of the school community all have an important role in creating an environment where individuals feel safe to communicate, seek help, and be themselves.

🤝 Creating Schools Where Everyone Feels Safe to Be

AVES CSOI believes that education is not only about academic achievement. Schools should also be places where individuals can learn, grow, communicate, make mistakes, seek support, and develop as human beings.

The “SAFE TO BE: Building Psychological Safety in School” initiative reinforces the importance of putting well-being, dignity, respect, empathy, and human connection at the heart of the educational experience.

AVES CSOI extends its sincere appreciation to the Las Piñas National High School – Main, its school leadership, DepEd teachers and principals, and the Guidance and Counseling Office staff and officers for the opportunity to share this important advocacy and for their openness in sharing their experiences, concerns, and best practices.

Because every school should be a place where everyone is SAFE TO SPEAK, SAFE TO LEARN, SAFE TO ASK FOR HELP, and SAFE TO BE HUMAN.

AVES CSOI Launches Project S.A.P.A.T. to Strengthen Food Security and Nutrition Among 4Ps Families in General Trias.

The AVES Civil Society Organization Inc. (AVES CSOI), headed by President Prof. Ivan James Fermanejo, in partnership with Lyceum of the Philippines University – Cavite (LPU-Cavite) and key community stakeholders, officially launched Project S.A.P.A.T. (Sustansya at Abot-kayang Pagkain sa Ating Tahanan) last September 5, 2026, at 9:00 AM at the Barangay Buenavista 1 Community Center, General Trias City, Cavite.

The community-driven initiative aims to strengthen household food security, nutrition, and food resilience among 40 selected Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) households in Barangay Buenavista 1.

🥬 Growing Food, Building Household Resilience

Project S.A.P.A.T. was developed as a community-based nutrition, urban agriculture, and household food resilience initiative that responds to challenges such as food insecurity, rising food prices, and childhood malnutrition among vulnerable low-income households.

Through the integration of Bio-Intensive Gardening (BIG) and containerized micro-farming techniques into the DSWD Family Development Sessions (FDS), the project seeks to empower families to become active producers of fresh, nutritious, and organically grown food, even with limited household space.

Rather than simply receiving assistance, participating families are encouraged to develop practical skills that can help them grow food, improve household nutrition, and potentially reduce food expenses.

🤝 A Strong Multi-Stakeholder Partnership

Project S.A.P.A.T. is being implemented through a collaborative framework involving:

AVES Civil Society Organization Inc. (AVESCSOI) – Lead non-profit partner responsible for technical training, overall project implementation, and bi-weekly garden monitoring.
Lyceum of the Philippines University – Cavite (LPU-Cavite) – Supports community profiling, student volunteer coordination, and youth civic engagement.
City Agriculture Office of General Trias – Provides technical agricultural guidance, enriched soil media, and quality vegetable seed packs.
DSWD Local Office / CSWD and 4Ps Parent Leaders – Assist in beneficiary mobilization, integration of project modules into FDS schedules, and monitoring of participation and compliance.
Barangay Council of Buenavista 1 and Barangay Health Workers (BHWs) – Support local venue coordination and conduct baseline health assessments, including height and weight measurements of children under five.

This partnership demonstrates how civil society, academe, government offices, local leaders, and community volunteers can work together to address household-level challenges through practical and sustainable solutions.

Project S.A.P.A.T. goes beyond the distribution of agricultural supplies. It focuses on building the knowledge, skills, and confidence of families so they can sustain their own household gardens.

In the succeeding months, beneficiaries will participate in additional FDS-based modules covering the preparation of Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ) and natural garlic-chili pest sprays, encouraging households to use accessible and more environmentally friendly alternatives to chemical inputs.

AVES CSOI coordinators and 4Ps Parent Leaders will also conduct bi-weekly household garden monitoring during Months 2 and 3 to check containerized garden setups and provide assistance with seedling transplanting.

💚 Growing Together for a Healthier Future

For AVES CSOI, Project S.A.P.A.T. represents more than an agricultural initiative. It is an investment in family resilience, community participation, nutrition, and sustainable development.

The project demonstrates that even small spaces can become productive, and that families can be empowered to take an active role in addressing food and nutrition challenges within their own homes.

AVES CSOI extends its appreciation to all collaborating partners, 4Ps Parent Leaders, Barangay Buenavista 1 officials, Barangay Health Workers, City Agriculture Office of General Trias, DSWD/CSWD, LPU-Cavite, student volunteers, and participating families whose collective efforts made the project initiation possible.

From seeds to nourishment, from households to communities, Project S.A.P.A.T. aims to grow not only food, but also healthier families, stronger communities, and a more resilient future.

AVES CSOI Partners with LPU-Cavite Students for Project TUSOK-TUSOK.

The AVES Civil Society Organization Inc. (AVES CSOI) was invited to collaborate and establish a partnership with students from the Lyceum of the Philippines University – Cavite (LPU-Cavite) for their initiative, Project TUSOK-TUSOK: “Redefining Street Vendors’ Potential Beyond the Sidewalk,” under Project L.Y.C.E.A.N. (Leading Youth Committed to Empowerment, Advocacy, and Nation-Building).

The engagement was held on September 11, 2026, at Barangay San Francisco, General Trias City, Cavite, bringing together the students, community members, and local vendors for a meaningful learning, advocacy, and community engagement activity.

🎤 Empowering Through Community-Based Learning

As part of the activity, AVES CSOI Director for Education, Mr. Angeleus G. Ambros, LPT, MAED, facilitated and delivered a community talk specifically for the vendors within the barangay.

The session provided vendors with relevant information and practical insights related to community empowerment, responsible practices, health and well-being, and active participation in community initiatives.

More importantly, the engagement created an opportunity to recognize the potential of street vendors as valuable members of the community. Project TUSOK-TUSOK seeks to look beyond the traditional perception of street vending by exploring ways to recognize, empower, and develop the potential and capabilities of vendors through education, advocacy, and community-based initiatives.

👥 Bringing Youth Advocacy Closer to the Community

The engagement allowed the LPU-Cavite HUMSS students to experience community engagement firsthand, giving them an opportunity to apply their academic learning and advocacy beyond the classroom.

Through Project L.Y.C.E.A.N., the students are encouraged to strengthen their leadership, communication, teamwork, advocacy, and community engagement skills, while gaining a deeper understanding of the realities, needs, and concerns of community members.

For AVES CSOI, empowering young people means providing them with opportunities to transform their ideas into meaningful action and become active partners in addressing community concerns.

🤝 Building Partnerships for Sustainable Change

AVES CSOI believes that sustainable community development requires strong collaboration among young people, educational institutions, civil society organizations, local communities, and other stakeholders.

The partnership between AVES CSOI and the LPU-Cavite students demonstrates how education and community engagement can come together to create meaningful opportunities for both young leaders and community members.

The activity also reinforces the importance of listening to communities, understanding their needs, recognizing their potential, and creating opportunities for empowerment.

🙏 Appreciation to Barangay San Francisco and the Community

AVES CSOI extends its heartfelt gratitude to Barangay San Francisco, General Trias City, Cavite, for the support and cooperation extended during the community engagement.

Special appreciation is also given to the vendors who participated in the session and actively engaged in the discussion. Your openness, participation, and willingness to learn helped make the activity more meaningful and relevant.

AVES CSOI likewise commends the LPU-Cavite students for taking the initiative to bring their advocacy beyond the classroom and into the community.

When young people lead with purpose and communities are given opportunities to participate, we can build empowered individuals, stronger communities, and future leaders committed to nation-building.
