CSA hosts parent talk on communicating with teens

The Center for Student Affairs, through the Office of Guidance and Counseling (OGC), successfully conducted a mental health talk for parents titled “Holding Space: Keeping Conversations Open with Your Teens” on March 7, 2026, at the Dizon Auditorium.

The event brought together parents and guardians of UA&P students in a meaningful learning session and open forum focused on understanding today’s Generation Z adolescents and strengthening parent-teen communication. The talk aimed to equip parents with practical strategies to navigate difficult conversations and foster more open, respectful, and supportive relationships with their children.

The session was led by Dr. Jerry J. Jurisprudencia, a clinical psychologist and guidance counselor from Miriam College, and Ms. Nikki Jean V. Jurisprudencia, a women & children rights advocate and researcher at NoBox Philippines. They shared their expertise in psychology, education, and family dynamics. Through their discussion, they highlighted the evolving digital landscape, the unique communication styles of today’s youth, and the importance of creating safe and supportive spaces for dialogue at home.

Participants engaged actively during the open forum, where parents raised questions and shared experiences related to communication challenges and parenting in the modern context. The exchange of insights further enriched the session, making it both informative and relatable.

The CSA-OGC continues to support the holistic well-being of students by engaging not only learners but also their families and support systems through relevant and timely programs.

As part of their industry exposure, they visited leading Japanese companies such as Nissan Motor Corporation, Fujifilm, and Yamaha Corporation. The program was further enriched by cultural visits and interactive activities that fostered intercultural understanding among students from diverse backgrounds.

Holy Week 2026: Shift to Online Work

In observance of the upcoming Holy Week, the University will shift to an online work arrangement from March 30 (Monday) to April 1 (Wednesday), 2026. Consequently, the campus will be closed to regular operations.

Please be guided by the following arrangements:

• Work Setup: Employees will transition to a work-from-home setup and are expected to remain reachable during standard working hours.
• Schedule: March 30 and 31 will follow regular working hours. As noted in the April holiday advisory, April 1 will observe a half-day schedule (work until 12:00 NN).
• Campus Access: On-campus activities are strictly restricted to those that have been pre-scheduled and explicitly approved.

This decision was made to facilitate safe travel to home provinces and to allow employees to prepare both practically and spiritually for the Paschal Triduum. May this period of remote work provide a peaceful transition into the solemn days ahead, allowing everyone a reflective start to their Holy Week journey.
