May pinagdaraanan o concern tungkol sa kaligtasan? Hindi mo kailangang harapin ito nang mag-isa.

Sa Learners TeleSafe Contact Center Helpline, mas madaling makahingi ng tulong ang mga mag-aaral at magulang. Pinalalakas din ng DepEd ang counseling, tamang referral, at propesyonal na tulong, katuwang ang National Center for Mental Health.

May malalapitan ka. May makikinig. At may handang tumulong.

Congratulations and Support - DR. EDWIN MERCADO & DR. BEVERLY LORRAINE HO

-MESSAGE-
On behalf of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines Episcopal Commission on Healthcare, we extend our warmest congratulations and prayers to Dr. Edwin Mercado on his appointment as Secretary of Health, and to Dr. Beverly Ho on her appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth).

Your appointments come at a crucial time for our nation, when the Filipino people need a healthcare system that is compassionate, accessible, transparent, and responsive—especially to the poor, the vulnerable, and those living in remote communities. We are confident that your professional competence, dedication, and spirit of public service will guide you as you undertake these important responsibilities.

The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines assures you of our prayers and support. Through our dioceses, hospitals, schools, parishes, and social-action institutions, we remain committed to working with the government in promoting the dignity of every person, strengthening health services, and ensuring that no Filipino is left behind.

May the Lord grant you wisdom, courage, integrity, and compassion as you serve our people. May your leadership bring renewed trust, effective cooperation, and meaningful improvements in the health and well-being of every Filipino.

With prayerful best wishes and fraternal support,
Rev. Fr. Dan Vicente Cancino Jr., MI
Executive Secretary,
Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines- ECHC
