Isang Makabatang Pagbati sa Anibersaryo ng National Council for Children’s Television! 🎉

We at MLAC Institute applaud and fully support NCCT’s continuous efforts in shaping and advocating for child-friendly media. 📺👧🏽👦🏻👶🏼

For her keynote speech, Dr. Honey Carandang encouraged the Council’s members and partners to reflect on the values that we want our children to be learn from the narratives that we create. Let us listen to our children so we can bring them more culturally rooted, values-based, Filipino stories we can truly call our own. 🇵🇭

Dr Honey left the multistakeholder gathering with: “Let’s tune in to our children before we ask them to tune in to us.” 🤍

Our October was filled with sharing advocacies and learning experiences in line with the celebration of World Mental Health Day. 💚 A little to Dr Honey Carandang’s talk on RESILIENCE and the importance of effective COMMUNICATION across generations.

We’re always happy to partner with NGF MindStrong for the fundraising of Hopeline PH. 🌼

We had a fruitful discussion on the role of caregivers and educators in supporting our youth on their journeys to resilience-building. At the center of which are the values of mindfulness, love, and compassion. 🙏🏽

Let us continue to support each other, bringing conversations about things that matter to us, even after mental health month. 💚

Heartfelt gratitude to AHA Learning Center for the opportunity to be part of the Better Together: Better World Summit for Education held at Better World Smokey Mountain on October 23, 2025. 💎

We are thankful for an impactful immersion to the programs offered at ‘Better World’ community learning centers. Such a humbling to experience firsthand such investments in education, expressive arts, socio-emotional learning, gender empowerment, and community-based mental health initiatives. 🙌🏽

It was yet another reminder of the critical significance of the role of the parents/caregivers to the wellbeing and learning outcomes of the child. With ‘Parenting as Nation-Building’ at the core of MLAC Institute, we look forward to more engagements where our shared values bring us! ✨

MLAC Institute is grateful to partner with the National Children's Hospital to bring accessible mental healthcare to its dedicated pediatricians. 🤍

Dr Honey Carandang shared the Basic Psychological Needs and grounded mindfulness practices that can be practiced even on hours of clinical work. She emphasized the need of teams that are psychologically safe and centered on compassion, where one can feel safe, understood, and honest without feeling judged. 🙏🏽

We applaud the heads of training and administrators for normalizing seeking support and prioritizing mental health and wellbeing especially to our healthcare workers. ✨

Thank you to the work that you do for the underserved children of our country. We are equally grateful to offer this space for you. Let's continue to co-create impactful shifts in our communities even with small steps. 🪷
