The College of Rehabilitation Sciences, through the Department of Speech-Language Pathology (SLP), continues its commitment to community service and accessible communication by conducting a series of seminar-workshops and parent coaching sessions in partnership with the Samar Center for Developmental Pediatrics.
On April 14, 2025, Ms. Mary Ann Gisselle Esguerra, M.H.P.Ed., RSLP, conducted a parenting seminar-workshop titled, “GABAY: Gawi at Gawain sa Bahay para sa mga Batang may Kahirapan sa Pagsasalita at Komunikasyon.” This aimed to empower parents with tools and techniques to support their children with communication difficulties.
Meanwhile, on April 25, 2025, the department held an online webinar and parent coaching session titled, “Words that Work: Parent Coaching and Seminar for Effective Communication at Home.”
In the morning session, Ms. Pia Angela Blanco, M.L.I., RSLP, delivered a webinar for parents of children with communication needs. In the afternoon, SLP interns facilitated one-on-one online coaching sessions to provide personalized guidance and support.
These initiatives reflect the college and department’s strong advocacy for accessible and community-centered services, particularly in underserved areas where SLP services are limited.
