CMC Strengthens Commitment to Student Wellness and Campus Safety

Because student well-being is the foundation of true success, Central Mindanao Colleges strengthened its commitment to student wellness and campus safety through its participation in the Regional Conference on Fostering Drug-Free and Mentally Healthy Higher Education Institutions, organized by the Commission on Higher Education Regional Office XII and held on December 15, 2025, in Koronadal City. The conference brought together higher education institutions across the region to advance collaborative strategies that promote mental health, resilience, and drug prevention in academic settings.

Representing Central Mindanao Colleges was Ms. Trisha Karl J. Rellon, Officer of the CMC Center for Student Success, who actively engaged in discussions and learning sessions focused on building safe, supportive, and inclusive campus environments.

Expert-led talks, interactive workshops, and open forums emphasized the integration of mental wellness initiatives with drug prevention programs, the development of student life skills and resilience, and the strengthening of institutional systems that prioritize holistic student growth.

CMC’s participation highlights its proactive role in advancing student-centered services, reinforcing mental health support mechanisms, and aligning institutional practices with national and regional wellness frameworks.

This initiative supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 3 Good Health and Well-Being, SDG 4 Quality Education, SDG 16 Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions, and SDG 17 Partnerships for the Goals, by strengthening collaboration among higher education institutions, government agencies, and stakeholders in building drug-free and mentally healthy campuses.

Through continued collaboration with CHEDRO XII and partner institutions, Central Mindanao Colleges remains steadfast in developing a campus culture where care, collaboration, and commitment empower students to thrive academically and personally.

CHOOSE CMC, where care shapes minds, collaboration builds strength, and wellness empowers future leaders.
