In celebration, and as part of the culmination of Women’s Month, the University of the Philippines Manila School of Health Sciences (UPM SHS) Tarlac Work Extension Service Committee, together with the 4th Campus Student Council, successfully conducted an outreach activity at the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) Tarlac Women’s Dormitory, an initiative rooted in empowerment, education, and compassion.
The activity featured an informative discussion on the Magna Carta of Women, highlighting the rights, dignity, and protection that every woman deserves. This was followed by a Basic Life Support (BLS) training participated in by the Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDL), jail guards, and criminology students, equipping them with essential, life-saving skills.
As we culminate Women’s Month, may this initiative remind us that empowerment reaches beyond boundaries and that every woman, regardless of circumstance, deserves to be valued and uplifted.
