PNP Conducts Anti-Drug and Anti-Terrorism Advocacy Campaign at Agay NHS

In a continuous effort to protect and educate the youth, the Philippine National Police (PNP) conducted an anti-drug and anti-terrorism advocacy campaign at Agay National High School. The initiative aimed to raise awareness among students about the dangers of illegal drugs and terrorism, encouraging them to make responsible life choices.

The campaign was led by PCPT Joel A. Ablan, Chief of Police, with PMSgt. Marife B. Uriarte as the resource speaker. She delivered a compelling discussion on the harmful effects of drug abuse, the tactics used by terrorist groups to recruit young individuals, and the importance of vigilance in maintaining a safe community. Her talk emphasized the role of students in preventing these threats and making informed decisions for their future.

This classroom-based advocacy campaign was facilitated by the Barkada Kontra Droga (BKD) officers, under the leadership of BKD President Mary Jane Mislos. Through interactive discussions and engaging activities, students gained a deeper understanding of how to resist peer pressure and recognize early signs of extremist influence.

The event was organized as part of the school’s intervention plan, spearheaded by YOLO Coordinator Jayson S. Patalinghug and BKD Adviser Rinalyn Dultra. Their dedication to promoting a safe and drug-free learning environment reflects the school’s commitment to shaping well-informed and responsible students.

Throughout the campaign, students were encouraged to take an active role in fostering a drug-free and terrorism-free society. By equipping them with the right knowledge and mindset, the initiative empowered them to make better choices and contribute to a safer community.

Through partnerships between law enforcement and educational institutions, Agay National High School continues to strengthen its advocacy for student welfare—ensuring that the next generation is well-prepared to stand against crime, substance abuse, and violence.
